I will be going to University soon and am looking for a tablet/netbook on which I can use a stylus to write notes (Chinese characters mostly). I have only found 2 netbooks (with swivel screens and full keyboards) that might work for me. One is the ASUS Eee PC T101MT, and the other is a Gigabyte Touchnote.
Does anyone know of tablets (keyboardless) that Ubuntu fully works on?
Please see this to get help with MultiTouch in Ubuntu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch#Community%20Help
The same page has a section dedicated to devices currently supported or being tested by the community. Your two choices don't seem listed there but I'd encourage you to file bugs: ubuntu-bug utouch
If you can do so from any of the devices, within a 10.10 live CD, that would be best.
I currently use a Lenovo X61 Tablet pc with Xournal as my handwritten notes application. There was some custom configuration I had to do, but for the most part it worked fine.
Well Ubuntu is working on multitouch and it should be in either the next release or the release after. Synaptics is making it too but I dont know if thats ready yet.
The touch screens will work it will just move the mouse to the place you touch it just wont do anything special.
