Description Denis Tatina 2017-06-09 07:51:19 UTC
Description of problem:
When i rotate my screen position everything on screen is correctly rotated but touchscreen and touchpad stays not inverted -> just like laptop stays in previous position.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Rotate laptop screen (my laptop do it automatically when rotate it)

Expected results:
Touchpad and touchscreen events are correctly inverted matching actual screen position (90, 180 or 360 degree).

Additional info:
My notebook is Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro. I'm running Fedora 26 (Gnome with Wayland session) with all latest updates. I don't know if it's connected with wayland.

same problem with pen on lenovo miix 700

Comment 2 Krister Kittelson 2018-02-16 13:16:08 UTC
Can confirm on the HP spectre x360 13t, running Fedora 27 and Gnome 3.26.2.

Affects pen, touchscreen, and touchpad. Possibly a problem with the configuration of libinput, it seems that the rotation events don't affect the input axes?

Comment 3 Krister Kittelson 2018-04-05 12:44:28 UTC
Partially fixed: Touchscreen now respects rotation

Remaining issue: Pen still fails to invert

This puts a damper on using Fedora as an artist's workstation, since painting and sketching is most often done in a portrait orientation.

Adam, what do you need from me to help get this on the resolution track? Since there were no updates to this bug report I assume the touchscreen fixes were from other reports. Should we merge this somewhere? Let me know how I can be of assistance so we can get this from "new" to somewhere else.

Since libinput's documentation is more platform-independent I have had some trouble finding the right direction to take re: Fedora's specific implementation. I'm an SQL and Python developer so my skills are probably not useful here, but perhaps I could hunt down and modify config entry somewhere. Can you direct me to the right rough area? If not in the ballpark, even state park would be close enough.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2018-05-03 08:16:44 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 26. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '26'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 26 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Krister Kittelson 2018-05-10 16:59:49 UTC
Confirmed still broken in Fedora 28. Will clone.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2018-05-29 11:38:25 UTC
Fedora 26 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-05-29. Fedora 26
is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any
further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
