Hello, I am struggling with the touchscreen on the Classmate pc. It's a resistive eTurboTouch, vendorId=22b9, productId=0006.
I am running Moblin 2.0 beta with kernel 2.6.30.3-4.1 (had to manually create initrd with /usr/libexec/mkmrstinitrd to be able to boot) and the touchscreen isn't working properly in X. Decent exploration revealed that the touchscreen (which is controlled by evdev X module) has a problem with the axis: 4 are reported (X, Y, Z and Rx), but the actual coordinates of the cursor are connected to Z and Rx. This problem has been reported for other touchscreens, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473144 for a thorough description of the problem https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=491629 for a possible solution - a small hid driver which corrects the axis allocation. I changed the driver to detect the vendor and product, compiled it, but it doesn't handle the touchscreen, which I think is already handled by the basic usb hid driver. So I tried to autoload the module at startup by including it in /etc/modules but it is not loaded, as any other modules included there. So I guess the /etc/modules feature is disabled. How could I load the module at startup, so that it handles the events before hid? Anyone work with the Classmate? Any luck on the touchscreen?
