I was under the assumption that the Ubuntu Touch Apps as found here would run using the Ubuntu Touch stack, supporting gestures and touch events. However through my attempts I have only been able to get these apps to run using the mouse and there doesn't seem to be any gesture support.
My Touch Table hardware is producing touch events conforming to the MultiTouch protocol and has been tested and works fine with Kivy's TouchTracer app, used to test various inputs.
I am not sure why the Ubuntu Touch mobile apps wouldn't work with uTouch, I haven't be able to find any information regarding this and what touch stack Ubuntu Touch is using.
Put short, why don't Ubuntu Touch apps support the MultiTouch Protocol? And how can I develop apps that make use of the MultiTouch protocol? (the ABS_MT_POSITION_X
and ABS_MY_POSITION_Y
input events going through evdev).
