- Improve the evdev input backend
The evdev input backend is used when writing applications and compositors
that directly drive the frame buffer on Linux. By ensuring that the evdev
input backend works correctly it is possible to manage input sources like
pointers, keyboards, and touch devices using the raw evdev device nodes.
Clutter now depends on libevdev in order to poll the evdev interfaces.
- Allow scaling windowing surfaces
The main part of the work to support high resolution displays is to make
sure that windowing surfaces can be created with a scaling factor, while
trasparently handling the new size from an application's perspective. The
scaling factor is currently set manually, but it in the near future it will
be automatically set by the environment.
