It would be great if you could add that... what do you mean by "live calibration" ?
It seems to me that calibration should be (mostly) a userland utility, that you do not want to run everytime the Xserver starts. I probably misunderstood what you meant. My only issue currently, is that if resolution changes, the mapping from touchscreen coords to screen coords changes, thus the touchscreen driver should be able to be notified, or query what the actual screen resolution is. The trick mentioned previsously about querying the current modeline would work, but it's a hack... something cleaner (portable, etc.) would be nicer. I admit I do not know the specifics of touchpad/stylus support, but I imagine that is also the only dynamic/live resolution support that would be necessary ? Something like XFGetCurrentMonitorResolution(displayID, &width, &height) ... BTW, I submitted the source for the magictouch driver on this mailling list, is there any chance it will appear in the XFree86 tree someday ? If a comitter needs changes, fixes to it or has questions, I'll be happy to help as I can. bruno On Thu, 9 Jun 2005, Fred Gleason wrote: > On Tuesday 07 June 2005 16:04, Tristan Van Berkom wrote: > > Since touchscreen drivers seem to be getting back in style, maybe > > we should write up some live calibration support ;-) > > I'm game.
