| 09:25.13 | Wizzup | Does anyone know how fremantle rotates its input device (touchscreen) when the device orientation changes? |
| 10:30.11 | *** join/#maemo norayr (inky@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/norayr) |
| 10:30.23 | Maxdamantus | Wizzup: my guess would be using randr. |
| 10:30.40 | Maxdamantus | Wizzup: `xrandr --output LCD --rotate right` seems to work for me. |
| 10:30.40 | Wizzup | Maxdamantus: right, but what component does that? |
| 10:30.52 | Maxdamantus | Oh, hildon-desktop iirc |
| 10:30.52 | Wizzup | That rotates the screen, I don't think that rotates input |
| 10:30.57 | Wizzup | That is usually done via xinput |
| 10:31.22 | Maxdamantus | The input seems to be rotated when I do that too. |
| 10:31.37 | Wizzup | yes, but this is not 'normal' on Linux |
| 10:31.39 | Maxdamantus | (I've disabled the rotation functionality in hildon-desktop) |
| 10:32.06 | Maxdamantus | What do you mean? xrandr is how I've always rotated screens in Linux. |
| 10:32.18 | Wizzup | yes, but it won't rotate your input devices for you, at least not touch screens |
| 10:32.40 | Maxdamantus | haven't really used any other devices with touchscreens, but I would expect Xorg will know to transform the touchscreen inputs appropriately. |
| 10:33.09 | Wizzup | It doesn't, I can assure you |
| 10:33.40 | Wizzup | that's why stuff like this exists https://gist.github.com/mildmojo/48e9025070a2ba40795c |
| 10:36.25 | Wizzup | Maybe they patched X to do that or something, but it doesn't work like this on X in that last 10 years |
| 10:36.49 | Wizzup | (I've dealt with lots of touchscreen devices, and they're separate entities from the screen, and there is not necessarily a way to tell X that they belong together |
| 10:36.56 | Wizzup | So usually they have to be rotated separately |
| 10:37.13 | Wizzup | back later |

| 11:41.17 | sixwheeledbeast | The way I remember it all windows have an extra flag that permits rotation and the whole window is redrawn by hildon. It's not a rotation as such everything is flexible and just redrawn. There wasn't much to enable it from the CSSU guys back in the day, Nokia had purposely not made it a thing as not everything would be able to play nice. |
| 11:46.29 | Wizzup | sixwheeledbeast: right, that is for windows, but not the input layer |
| 11:46.42 | Wizzup | I know how that works, but that's not what I mean |
| 11:47.09 | Wizzup | basically, if you take any modern linux, and a device with a touchscreen, if you rotate the screen with xrandr, the touch device won't follow implicitly |
| 11:47.21 | Wizzup | so all input will be wrong until you make the touch input device match the screen |
| 11:47.38 | Wizzup | (this is what 'xinput map-to-output' does) |
| 11:51.35 | sixwheeledbeast | i don't really understand it in depth it's just what I recall. if the window is just redrawn instead of "rotated" then why does input layer matter? to the touchscreen nothing is different? |
| 11:52.52 | Wizzup | the window isn't drawn rotated, the screen is rotated |
| 11:53.15 | Wizzup | and the window properties do not relate here: they just tell hildon is it needs to force a certain screen rotation |
| 11:53.25 | Wizzup | (I know, because I just finished porting them to leste qt 5) |

| 12:12.16 | sixwheeledbeast | oh not sure then |
| 12:16.15 | sixwheeledbeast | Maybe something in the xserver-xomap metapackage has some answers? that was a package modified by the community for rotation support |
