Fri Aug 21 08:34:34 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.99.1:
* Release candidate for libinput 1.0.
* No additions to the API, this release only contains a couple of
bugfixes and general improvements.
* The most obvious fix is that natural scrolling now also works
for edge scrolling. The threshold needed to trigger scrolling
on a touchpad was reduced to 2mm in 0.21 but a bug prevented
that from activating until 5mm movement was hit.
* Touchpad scrolling now uses unaccelerated motion data. This
provides better behavior for short consecutive scroll motions
and a better 1:1 mapping between finger and content, especially
with natural scrolling.
* The pointer acceleration code has been cleaned up, though the
focus here was to make it easier to understand for developers.
The functionality remained largely the same aside from a few
bugfixes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug 4 16:35:20 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.21.0:
* A new addition to the API is the configuration option to toggle
disable-while-typing. It's still enabled by default, but can
now be disabled for the use-cases where it is problematic
(games, for example). The API is the usual quartett of
configuration options:
- libinput_device_config_dwt_is_available
- libinput_device_config_dwt_set_enabled
- libinput_device_config_dwt_get_enabled
- libinput_device_config_dwt_get_default_enabled
* The second addition to the API is the ability to get the time
in microseconds from an event:
- libinput_event_gesture_get_time_usec
- libinput_event_keyboard_get_time_usec
- libinput_event_pointer_get_time_usec
- libinput_event_touch_get_time_usec
* libinput switched internally to use µs for all timestamps which
will help those devices that have a sampling frequency of more
than 1000Hz.
* Thumb detection, added for 0.20, has seen fine-tuning to reduce
the number of misdetection. Likewise, the gesture code has seen
a bunch of changes to tune the reliability of gesture
detection, especially on semi-mt touchpads.
* Scrolling is now more reactive too, with reduced thresholds
before scrolling kicks in.
* Merged a bunch of device-specific device handling to
work around quirks and deficiencies in some touchpad hardware.
- Add
libinput-touchpad-serial-synaptics-needto-fake-new-touches.patch
following upstreams advice for kernel 4.1.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jul 18 08:28:06 UTC 2015 - tittiatcoke@gmail.com
- Update to version 0.20.0:
* The big new addition in this release is support for touchpad
gestures. Two types of gestures are supported: swipe and pinch.
Swipe is triggered by a movement of 3+ fingers in the same
direction, pinch is triggered by two fingers moving towards or
away from each other and/or a rotation around a logical center.
Both gestures, once triggered, can move around the touchpad,
making it possible to use them for fine-grained motion.
* Edge scrolling is now possible on clickpads too and thus available
on all touchpads. Thumb detection was added, it is now possible
to rest the thumb on a clickpad while moving a pointer without
interference
* libinput now requires touchpads to have a resolution. If the
kernel device does not set it and none of the hwdb rules do either,
libinput assigns a default resolution to the device. This may have
an effect on your touchpad, please file a bug if you notice
anything untoward. On the positive side it removes the magic
numbers sprinkled through the code
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul 9 19:22:18 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.19.0:
* The biggest change in this release is improved pointer
acceleration code. Previously, slow movements were decelerated.
For anything resembling normal motion the pointer response is
effectively 1:1, making the cursor respond nicely to your mouse
movement.
* Low-dpi devices had a bug where they would skip pixels for
small movements. This was caused by the pointer normalization
to 1000dpi. Devices with a native resolution below 1000dpi now
have their own acceleration curve, providing much better
behaviour.
* The side-effect of this is that we had to drop the pretense of
normalization to 1000dpi. The documentation has been adjusted.
* The second side-effect is that the unaccelerated data is now
closer (or equal) to the device native resolution.
* The second user-visible change is disabling of tap drag-lock by
default. A new config API triplett is available to enable it:
libinput_device_config_tap_set_drag_lock_enabled
libinput_device_config_tap_get_drag_lock_enabled
libinput_device_config_tap_get_default_drag_lock_enabled
* Other fixes include better responsiveness of the touchpad when
switching from the trackpoint to the touchpad and a smaller
edge scroll motion threshold. And of course the usual bugfixes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 23 08:12:33 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.18.0:
* Touchpad handling has improved filters for erroneous small
movements. Palm detection in the edge scrolling zone has been
disabled, it previously caused unreliable edge scrolling on
larger touchpads.
* Alps touchpads now always provide a config option for middle
button emulation - these devices don't know whether a middle
button is available, providing the option (and defaulting to
emulation on) allows users to have a better out-of-the-box
experience.
* Note that license boilerplate code has changed - it now carries
the MIT license as intended. See the commit log for bc9f16b40e
for details.
* No API changes or additions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jun 6 16:21:16 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.17.0:
* The timeout for the tap-and-drag has been significantly
reduced.
* Really slow mouse movement got swallowed because the
acceleration calculations timed out and returned an
acceleration factor of 0.
* Basic thumb detection was added for clickfinger behaviour, it
is now possible to execute a single click with a thumb while
the pointer-moving finger is resting on the touchpad.
- Changes from version 0.16.0:
* Touchpads with ABS_MT_DISTANCE such as the Chromebook Pixel are
now supported.
* The tapping code now allows ending a tap-and-drag with an extra
tap, i.e. the sequence becomes:
tap, finger down, move .... move, finger up, tap
* Also in the touchpad code: disable-while-typing has been added.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May 6 10:24:26 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.15.0:
* One new API was added: libinput_device_keyboard_has_key() which
does what it says on the box.
* A new tool is now available: libinput-debug-events
This tool allows debugging libinput events directly, it works
as something like an evtest to libinput. Note that it is very
much a debugging tool only, do not rely on any specific
behavior or output format.
* A new udev property POINTINGSTICK_CONST_ACCEL is now supported
for pointing sticks. If set for a compatible device, the input
data is multiplied with a constant factor.
* We've added support for the LIBINPUT_MODEL_xzy udev tag. This
enables us to tag specific models or series in udev and apply
required quirks.
* A couple of bugfixes, mainly in the touchpad code. The
doubletap timeout is now longer but multi-tapping is generally
more responsive now.
* Clickfinger behavior was fixed to allow left-clicks even when a
touch isn't present on the device.
* Button scrolling is enabled by default on some devices now,
specifically on devices without a scroll wheel but with a
middle button.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 4 20:07:31 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Also set Version to 0.14.1, no need to have a diff there.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 22 14:37:33 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.14.1:
* libinput now provides middle button emulation for physical
buttons and, for some devices, a configuration interface to
enable said emulation.
* A new tool "libinput-list-devices" was added. This tool lists
the locally recognised devices and their respective
configuration options and configuration defaults. Note that due
to the design of libinput, this tool can only show the
_default_ configurations, not the _current_ configuration of
each device.
* The pointer acceleration range has been widened to allow for
greater deceleration and greater acceleration. Since we retain
the [-1, 1] range, you may see a slight slowdown or speedup. To
get the previous behaviour, use the value: current setting *
2.0/3.0.
* Five (or more) finger tapping is now handled correctly, though
note we only send events for up to three fingers. libinput now
supports multi-tap and drag, so e.g. three taps will execute a
triple-click.
* Palm detection now avoids accidental tapping, see
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/palm_detection.html
* And of course the usual bugfixing, including letting libinput
handle more devices such as keyboards with scroll wheels or
devices that only consist of a wheel.
- Add tool subpackage.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 8 19:46:59 UTC 2015 - mpluskal@suse.com
- Update to 0.13.0
* No API changes were merged in this release, the ABI is
compatible with 0.12.0.
* The tap motion threshold is now a fixed distance on all
touchpads (withphysical resolution). This stops the delay in
pointer motion seen on some devices.
* The edge scrolling motion threshold now accumulates, so even a
slow scroll will eventually trigger edge scrolling.
* The velocity calculation on slow movements was fixed, this
should provide a slightly more responsive and accurate
touchpad motion, especially on direction changes.
* To ease development, libinput will now print warnings when a
caller does wrong event conversions (e.g. requesting a touch
event when the event is a pointer event, etc.).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Mar 14 20:24:07 UTC 2015 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 0.12.0
* The new features (since 0.11) are device groups and the use of
udev tagging for device identification. Device groups are a
labelling system to allow callers to identify which libinput
devices are part of the same physical device.
* libinput's API and ABI are now stable
* Fixes to correctly handle Protocol A multitouch devices.
* Buttonless touchpads are now supported (e.g. the touch portion of
the Wacom Intuos tablets), on those touchpads tapping is enabled
by default.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 9 01:35:57 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to new upstream release 0.10.0
* A call to libinput_device_config_accel_set_speed() with a value
of NAn triggered an assert() in libinput.
* Pointer devices with absolute axes (such as the ones used in VMs)
had an uninitialized pointer acceleration speed, triggering a
warning in the xorg libinput driver.
- Changes from upstream release 0.9.0
* Support for hovering fingers on touchpads. Some touchpads detect
fingers before actually touching the surface causing unexpected
motion events. libinput now handles such touchpads.
* Click methods are now configurable, see below for more details.
* Support for the Lenovo X1 Carbon 3rd was added. Note that this
requires kernel patches and a udev hwdb addition.
- API additions:
* libinput_device_config_click_get_methods
* libinput_device_config_click_get_method
* libinput_device_config_click_get_default_method
* libinput_device_config_click_set_method
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jan 25 13:33:04 UTC 2015 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 0.8.0
* Improved touchpad support. For example, it is not necessary
anymore to lift all fingers when switching from scrolling to
pointer movement.
* Scroll event types were merged. Previously we supplied horiz/vert
scrolling as separate event, even in diagnonal scrolling.
Now each scroll event may contain one or more axes.
* Support for axis sources: a scroll event can be of source finger,
wheel or continuous. This enables callers to implement kinetic
("fling") scrolling.
* Scroll wheel events now return the data in degrees. A matching
udev hwdb system is in place to adjust this when needed. A
"discrete" scroll value is available if you are interested in
the clicks only.
* Left-handed configuration was renamed. For future tablet support,
the button-based naming was inappropriate. A simple
search/replace fixes this.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Dec 12 02:00:29 UTC 2014 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 0.7.0
* Devices can be disabled/enabled at runtime. This includes smart
disabling of touchpads when a USB mouse is plugged in, and smart
disabling of the T440 touchpads so that the top buttons still
work even when the touchpad is disabled.
* Edge scrolling is available on some devices, and the scroll
method can be switched at runtime
* Trackpoints can scroll by pressing the middle button and moving
the stick. This button-scrolling method is also available on
other devices on request.
* Pointer acceleration is becoming device-resolution independent,
provided your device has a DPI entry in the udev hwdb. This makes
high-resolution gaming mice behave normally. See this post for
more details:
http://who-t.blogspot.com/2014/12/building-a-dpi-database-for-mice.html
* Pointer speed can be changed at runtime.
* Natural scrolling is now available, for touchpads and mice.
* Devices can be switched to left-handed, libinput handles the
details.
* Devices can be asked to change their assigned logical seat at
runtime.
* Relative pointer events also provide unaccelerated motion. Note
that this is _not_ raw data as it comes from the device, it is
normalized to 1000dpi.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep 12 10:54:15 UTC 2014 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 0.6.0
* This release has some API changes, namely:
"libinput_device_get_keys" is deprecated.
* Initial device state can now always be assumed to be that no
keys are pressed. Calibration of touch devices has been changed
to be using a normalized calibration matrix. While
libinput_device_calibrate has undergone this change, it has
also been deprecated and replaced with a configuration API.
* The implicit reading of the udev parameter WL_CALIBRATION has
been removed in favor for LIBINPUT_CALIBRATION_MATRIX. The
usage of WL_CALIBRATION was broken because the translation part
of its matrix was in pixels which is a metric not available in
libinput. The new calibration matrix avoids this by having the
translation be normalized to the dimension of the device
dimensions. See the documentation for details about how to use
the LIBINPUT_CALIBRATION_MATRIX udev parameter.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 22 21:14:17 UTC 2014 - jengelh@inai.de
- Update to new upstream release 0.5.0
* Device information (name, vendor id, product id) getters
* The beginning of a configuration API. So far tapping on touchpads
can be enabled or disabled.
* As a side effect, tapping is now disabled by default and needs
explicit enabling via the new API.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jul 13 11:22:54 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 0.4.0:
* The logging system now works per-context instead of per library
and dropped the userdata argument.
* libinput_destroy() was changed to libinput_unref(), plus you
now have libinput_ref() too.
* A couple of renames of constants for API consistency.
Triggered by the logging changes, creation of udev seats is now
different.
* A couple of bugfixes, mainly in the touchpad code.
Absolute event coordinates are now provided in mm, not
device-specific coordinates. This doesn't change anything for
callers using the respective_get_transformed() function.
* ref/unref() is now available for the libinput context itself.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu May 1 21:25:26 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org
