Re: [PATCH 1/4] Revert to anonymous 'type A' MT protocol for touch

Hi Dima,

Could you tell when will android support protocol B ?

I'm using android honeycomb mr2 release, I found it not support Protocol B yet.

Best regards,
Zhang Jiejing

Agreed. The next version will correctly use protocol B. When I briefly
(too briefly clearly :-( ) looked at the original patches, I thought
they were driver bug fixes. If it's just workarounds for stuff android
doesn't do, then we should fix our framework.

Jason, do any of these patches fix actual driver bugs or make the
driver more robust?

Android (at least up to Gingerbread) does not understand the 'B' protocol
first made available in 2.6.36. As a workaround until this is fixed, we
drop back to using the 'A' protocol.
Well, fix Android then. Same goes for patches 2 & 3.

Thanks.
