I have written to the author of the patch, to ask him if somebody else than him
should post the patch on linuxwacom development website (sourceforge), but he
hasnt't still answered to that question. I saw in linuxwacom forums on
sourceforge that this little patch was discussed between him and Ping Cheng
(see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=4A03EE63.3010403%40seas.upenn.edu&forum_name=linuxwacom-discuss
).
My position is : whatever do the linuxwacom project, distributions should have
to patch this package for widely diffused TabletPC like HP and Dell models with
this n-trig touchscreen device before waiting the upstream to be fixed, as it
appears that it could have been fixed monthes ago !
This modification is small, and advantages are considerable for 99% of users :
their TabletPC could operate OpenSuSE, or not.
Therefore, I've added the inclusion of a patched linuxwacom package as a
desired feature of OpenSUSE : https://features.opensuse.org/308203
About fdi files, I confess that I can't figure out how to configure everything,
including ATI or NVidia cards and n-trig fingers-and-stylus touchscreens, AND
to keep a functionnal integration of sax2 in YaST configuration modules ? (what
will display sax2 about tablet or touchscreen if configured by fdi ?)
This bug is certainly a bit more difficult than others to fix as it depends on
three steps, but the three steps have to be fixed, as the reported bug is
"support of HP tx2 touchsmart tabletPCs".
