Created attachment 41222 [details] Xorg.0.log with working xf86-input-evdev-2.5
can you bisect the driver to find the commit that broke it? I havent noticed any crashes yet with master, so it could be somewhere in the ABI 12 patches
oh. bisecting... unless i screwed it up, here is offender: b48f4c41c0d3386bba3e9d8fa3da91f18aae190b is the first bad commit commit b48f4c41c0d3386bba3e9d8fa3da91f18aae190b Author: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net> Date: Mon Oct 11 09:33:28 2010 +1000 Add proximity support. When one of the tools comes into proximity, queue up a proximity event and send it accordingly. Includes special handling for tablets that do not send axes with tools (#29645) Some tablets send axis values, then EV_SYN, and in the next event the BTN_TOOL_PEN/BTN_TOUCH, etc. For these tablets, the cursor doesn't move as coordinates while not in proximity are ignored. Buffer coordinates received while out-of-proximity and if we get a proximity event without other coordinates, re-use the last ones received.
