Hi,
Hopefully this is not a wrong forum for this and hopefully this is not
something too obvious - I've trie to google for several times, but
didn't find anything except the transient X touch-click issue which I've
gotten taken care of by a patched X server.
I started using gnome 3 after reading that there is process on the way
to have touchscreen support. The design does look like it'll be good
with touch screen, but there's a big practical problem at the moment.
For some reason gnome-shell doesn't react in any way when I click on the
icons (e.g. activity, wlan, bluetooth, logout) on gnome shell top bar.
With Unity or any program running on top of gnome 3 I don't have a
problem: e.g. firefox and other programs work fine with touchscreen
click, so it doesn't seem to be a generic touchscreen click. Also with
the ordinary mouse things work as expected.
I wonder if it is perhaps some kind of setting - or if it's a bug, I'm
willing to try newer versions of gnome shell and/or patches, or maybe
take a go at fixing it myself.
The hardware is laptop/tablet hybrid with detachable tablet part. I'm
used to touchscreen UI on Android but it's new to me on daily use on a
laptop, but it does seem it could be quite useful for some tasks even in
laptop mode, and for detached tablet use it's a most.
Gnom shell version: 3.8.2-1ubuntu2~raring2 from ubuntu-ppa
Hardware: asus transformer book tx300 (4005)
