[Bug 275650] [NEW] [UVFe] Please sync xserver-xorg-input-mutouch (1.2.0-2) from Debian unstable (main) - fixes: mutouch driver in hardy is Y axis Inverted

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Bryce Harrington (bryceharrington):

A fix for the issue listed below is available in the 1.2.0-2 version of
this driver.  No other changes besides this fix was included in that
release.  Please sync this to Ubuntu at the earliest convenience.

xserver-xorg-input-mutouch (1:1.2.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Cherry-picked from upstream: Handle axis inversion in the driver.
    The current X server doesn't handle inverted axes, so we need to do it in
    the driver. Report valid axis ranges to the server, but flip the
    coordinates before posting events.
    LP: #275650, fd.o bug#17813.

[Original Report]
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-mutouch

Okay, using and older version of the mutouch driver in gutsy, everything
works fine.

However once upgraded to hardy the Y axis of the touch screen is
inverted.

Changing MinY and MaxY in xorg.conf has no effect.

Can it be related to this

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-
elographics/+bug/218671

mutouch in debug mode seems to output the same values for Y, where ever I put my finger,
however hardy Y movement is inverted? Has something changed in Xorg.

Beer for the first person who can send me a patch :-) or a way I can
downgrade my X server ( ;-) )
