HI all,
This popped up on my amazon feed.
https://www.amazon.ca/InnoView-Portable-Touchscreen-10-Point-Protective/dp/B

Listed as 15.6" 1080P with 10 point touch screen. Is something
like this
usable with LinuxCNC and one of the Touch Screen interfaces?
Thanks
John
Funny you should ask John, just last week as I was bringing up s sovol
sv08 MAX printer, which has a separate hdmi interface made to be able
to tweak the hundreds of settings klipper as a printer driver gives
you via its http control interface. I'd bought a 7" color TFT
monitor, called a 10.1" in Merican format adv. but had no x config
settings. And stumbled over a post on stack exchange that looked
promising, so I modified 3 lines of it and replaced the spaceholder
with that. Works perfectly, 1st try. So the info is out there if
your google foo works. Plug the touchscreen output into a usb port
and cat /dev/input/event# to see where the touch data is output, there
may be several event0-thru event9 depending on the usb discovery of
your system. You will get several 12 byte repeating sequences of
output per fingertouch In debian 11 which is the os for this svo08 MAX
printer, see /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/01-dbbian.defaults,conf and it looks
like this at the bottom of it now:
The server echo screwed the formating. . . 2nd try, forget the double
spacing
There are other entry's above this but this is what changed.
#Section "InputClass"
# Identifier "touchscreen catchall"
# MatchIsTouchscreen "on"
# Option "CalibrationMatrix" "-1 0 1 0 -1 1 0 0 1" #see the X11
manpage but this is section is in swahili.
#EndSection
And added this:
Secction "InputDevice"
Driver "evdev"
Identifier "touchscreen"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0" #edit the 0 to match the src you found
Option "Name" "touch screen"
#Option "GrabDevice" "true"
Option "InvertY" "true"
Option "Calibration 0 1024 0 600" #edit to suit your screens pixels by
pixels
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
EndSection
I hope this is a bit of help John. And I'm developing a profound hate
for t-bird.
