Find and compile a small utility called evtest: http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/input/input.html http://linuxconsole.cvs.sourceforge.net/linuxconsole/ruby/utils/evtest.c?view=log Then try evtest /dev/input/event{your device number} If it will report useful values, it is a problem of value scaling/click threshold (I don't know, how it can be configured, but in worst case a source code patch could help). If it will not report useful values, it is a problem of kernel driver. -- Stanislav Brabec http://www.penguin.cz/~utx/zaurus _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
