HP TouchSmart tx2
This is a work in progress to get Arch Linux to work on the HP tx2z multitouch tablet pc.
Installed using archlinux-2009.08 x86_64. Few other tips can be seen on Arch's wiki page for Tablet PC
Configuration details
Display
currently the touch screen works with the drivers from the xf86-input-synaptics package from the repos. To set up amazing multitouch functionality, see Touchpad Synaptics.

Input
Keyboard
almost all Fn keys work out of the box.
- rotate screen button and configuration button are not recognized by xev
- Fn + F[1-4] are bound as:
$ xev | grep -A2 --line-buffered '^KeyRelease' | sed -n '/keycode /s/^.*keycode \([0-9]*\).* (.*, \(.*\)).*$/\1 \2/p' 146 Help <- Fn+F1 33 p <- Fn+F2* 37 Control_L <- Fn+F2* (Fn+F2 performs both functions simultaneously) 180 XF86HomePage <- Fn+F3 33 p <- Fn+F4
Touchpad
- mouse input = works
- scrollup/down = works
- tap to click = works
- mouse buttons = work
Stylus
- mouse input = need to modify xorg to work
- button (right click) = need to modify xorg to work
- tap to click = need to modify xorg to work
Remote
- Works by default: Super (Windows Button), Squiggly (turns screen brightness down), Arrow keys (behave like the ones on the keyboard), volume controls.
- Does not work by default: Power, DVD, Play, Stop, Forward, Backward, previous, next, up, info, ok?
- Update coming soon. ;) Trusktr 03:07, 2 May 2011 (EDT)
