Comment(by erikos):

 In GTK3 just landed [http://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2012/03/02/gtk-
 hackfest-aftermath/ initial touch support]. So scrolling and receiving raw
 touch events (no gestures) does work now, just had a quick glance this
 morning on F17 on my Wetab. The stack for multi-touch in Linux has seen
 some [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Multitouch_support  recent
 work as well].

 In theory we should see multiple touch points now. From a quick glance
 with Fedora head I am not sure more than one touch point worked on my
 Wetab, but is something I need to look closer at to interpret the results.
