[PATCH] Input - synaptics: use dmax in input_mt_assign_slots

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When tapping a clickpad with two fingers, there is a chance that the
sensor sees first only one finger, and at the next scan only the
second one.
In this case, the sensors says that there has been only one finger
on the clickpad, which moved really fast between two scans.

We can try to counter this by adding a limit to what an actual finger
can move between 2 scans.
A distance of 1cm between two scans for one finger seems reasonable.

However, this is not really accurate because the resolution in X and in Y
differs. But heh, that's how the in-kernel tracking works right now, and
its job is quite good, even with this approximation.

This parameter solves most of the jumps observed, not all of them however.
But this is a hardware defect, and we might not be able to get something
better without much heavier computations.
