Hi,

this release candidate brings multitouch support, for which one needs:
 - input proto with multitouch (>= 2.1.99.3).
 - server with multitouch (>= 1.11.99.901).
 - mtdev development files.

This driver can still be built against the 1.10 and 1.11 server branches.

Happy new year.

Mraw,
KiBi.

      Bump to 2.6.99
      Move misplaced #endif caused by smooth-scrolling merge
      Use a new "Virtual Device" boolean property to mark virtual devices
      Remove duplicate line
      Use mtdev API to allocate/free mtdev structs
      0 is the value for "unknown/unlimited" number of touches
      MT axes are counted separately, make sure they're initialized too.
      When resetting the queue, don't reset the touchMask
      Simplify a condition, only the event type differs here
      Replace open_slot/close_slot with a SlotState enum
      Skip event posting for empty slots.
      Replace 0/1 button values with enums
      Print to the log if we find multitouch axes.
      Add the required defines to compile against the inputproto
      Use xf86InitValuatorAxisStruct, the touch-specific version was dropped
      Map ABS_MT_POSITION_X/Y into ABS_X/Y
      Drop now-unnecessary XI 2.1 and XI 2.2 error suppression defines
      Add is_blacklisted_axis() helper
      Don't count legacy and MT axes twice
      Always include mt_mask in the evdev struct
      Include config.h from evdev.h

      Test for mtdev before assuming multitouch
      Require xserver 1.12 RC1

Peter Korsgaard (1):
      Handle touchscreens without BTN_TOUCH

Rami Ylimäki (3):
      Release leaked XKB options on input device disconnect.
      Release leaked device identifier on input device disconnect.
      Remove constness of device filename to avoid warning when freed.

Simon Thum (1):
      rename valuator init functions

Terry Lambert (1):
      xf86-input-evdev: Return proper default for unknown values in pInfo->device_control.
