Re: Elographics touch driver
Hi all, I installed the xserver-xorg-input-elographics package and it seems to work. I can move the mouse by touching the display. However, some calibration seems to be needed. Touching the display does not move the mouse under my finger. I can just move the mouse pointer by dragging over the display at an arbitrary location. I tried to play with stuff like Section "InputDevice" Identifier "ELO touchscreen" Driver "elographics" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "MinimumXPosition" "300" Option "MaximumXPosition" "3700" Option "MinimumYPosition" "300" Option "MaximumYPosition" "3700" Option "UntouchDelay" "10" Option "ReportDelay" "10" Option "SendCoreEvents""yes" EndSection in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but these entries (existence or not) have no effect on the behaviour of the touch screen. Where can this driver be configured/calibrated and is it possible to have absolute coordinates, meaning that the mouse pointer is braught the the position of my finger when touching the screen? It is a blind shot, but in wacom driver, when it is not correctly loaded, it behaves like a mouse (i.e. no absolute positioning), which correlates with your story. Review your /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any problem loading the driver. OK, I now have xserver-xorg-input-elographics installed and the following entries in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Section "InputDevice" Identifier "ELO touchscreen" Driver "elographics" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "MinimumXPosition" "3000" Option "MaximumXPosition" "3700" Option "MinimumYPosition" "3000" Option "MaximumYPosition" "3700" Option "UntouchDelay" "10" Option "ReportDelay" "10" Option "SendCoreEvents""yes" Option "ScreenNumber" "0" Option "ButtonNumber" "1" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" ... InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" InputDevice "Configured Mouse" InputDevice "ELO touchscreen" "SendCoreEvents" EndSection After restarting X the touch still behaves like a mouse (no absolute ositioning) and in /var/log/Xorg.0.log I get debian:/usr/lib/xorg/modules/input# tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: 'Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '' 0x18 Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '╴' 0xFB Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '' 0x1 Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '' 0x18 Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '╴' 0xFC Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '' 0x2 Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '' 0x18 Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '╴' 0xFD Elographics: Dropping one byte in an attempt to synchronize: '' 0x2 Unable to ask Elographics touchscreen identification Any idea?

Re: Elographics touch driver
Hi, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but these entries (existence or not) have no effect on the behaviour of the touch screen. Where can this driver be configured/calibrated and is it possible to have absolute coordinates, meaning that the mouse pointer is braught the the position of my finger when touching the screen? It is a blind shot, but in wacom driver, when it is not correctly loaded, it behaves like a mouse (i.e. no absolute positioning), which correlates with your story. Review your /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any problem loading the driver. I searched my /var/log/Xorg.0.log for elo or touch and found nothing. Since my entries in /etc/X11/xorg.conf did not change the behaviour, I removed them again. Shouldn't the package xserver-xorg-input-elographics add some entries to /etc/X11/xorg.conf? I am wondering how and where this thing can be calibrated/activated properly. The package is installed, (currently) no changes to any config files. The touch behaves like a mouse (no absolute positioning). No touch-related entries in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. What can I do. I found absolutely no documentation for the xserver-xorg-input-elographics package with google. :-( Thanks a lot!
