Peter Hutterer 61a99aff9d dix: pre-scale relative events from abs devices to desktop ratio (#31636)
Absolute devices may send relative events depending on the mode (synaptics
by default, wacom per option). The relative events are added to the previous
position, converted into device coordinates and then scaled into desktop
coordinates for pointer movement.

Because the device range must be mapped into the desktop coordinate range,
this results in uneven scaling depending dimensions, e.g. on a setup with
width == 2 * height, a relative movement of 10/10 in device coordinates
results in a cursor movement of 20/10 (+ acceleration)

Other commonly user-visible results:
* the touchpad changing acceleration once an external monitor as added.
* drawing a circle on a wacom tablet in relative mode gives an ellipsis in
  the same ratio as the desktop dimensions.

Solution: pre-scale the incoming relative x/y coordinates by width/height
ratio of the total desktop size. Then add them to the previous
coordinates and scale back with the previous mapping, which will undo the
pre-scaling and give us the right movement.

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:
