      Gotta be careful… I just ordered a 6 point IR frame but it’s only 1 point touch under Linux.

        @spacevolt number of points beside, metal coated mirrors and capacitive touch don’t really mix.
        I learn that the hard way.

            @broberg might be a dumb suggestion, would it work if you added a 1mm of clear acrylic film in between the mirror and touch film?

              @spacevolt no, the layer that distorts the electrostatic field readings (the metal coating on the mirror) are still in between the foil and your finger. The board thinks you basically sat your naked ass on the foil :D
