Thinkpad X230 Tablet scripts and fixes
Raw
README.md

Install thinkpad-scripts from ppa:martin-ueding/stable

File to modify: /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb

  1. Change

KEYBOARD_KEY_6c=direction # rotate screen

for

KEYBOARD_KEY_6c=cyclewindows # rotate screen

  1. Execute sudo udevadm hwdb --update

  2. Reboot

Why? Ubuntu handle direction key (rotate button on the bezel) but not rotation of touch input. cyclewindows is not handled and free to be used and never had a problem with partial handling of rotation by ubuntu.

fix-pen-eraser need to be executed each login. Can be added to startup applications.

rotate can be executed each time rotate key on the bezel (TaskPane instead of RotateWindows) is pressed.
