= Input Driver Roadmap =

This page loosely describes what's needed for the next versions of various input drivers. This site is NOT for collecting feature request. Please file a bug if you want to propose a feature to a driver.

Feel free to work on any of the features below but make sure to contact [[http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/doc/xorg-docs/tree/MAINTAINERS|the maintainer]] to avoid duplicating work.

== evdev ==
 * axis inversion and axis swapping should be moved into the server or a library. Currently being worked on [[http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21129|Bug 21129]].
 * drag lock, wheel emulation should potentially be in the server/a library.


 * wacom support needs polishing
 * touchpad support needs polishing

== synaptics ==
 * remove synclient and syndaemon, push into separate repository
 * remove pointer acceleration code - rely on the server for acceleration. alternatively, tell the server to not accelerate on top of synaptics. See also [[http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20371#c11|Bug 20371, Comment 11]].
 * remove SHM configuration. SHM for debugging is fine, but not for configuration (this will break with pre 1.6 servers) - '''completed in git'''
 * Make the driver more talkative about read errors and the like.
