Need help to test/use evdev touchscreen patch.
I just joined this list after seing an archived post from July 11 about touchscreen calibrations. http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com/msg00106.html It said: >Tim Lawrenz was kind enough to test this on his touchscreen, and >reports: >"I installed the evdev and got it to work with my touchscreen easily. it >captures nearly all of the screen except for approx. 10 pixels on the >border. I tried to use the much cited MaxX, etc. values in the >xorg.conf, but these seem to get ignored, so I have no idea how to >proceed from here." >If anyone could validate that this patch does in fact improve touchpad >calibration options, it would be much appreciated. As far as can tell, Tim's experience is exactly what I observe with the (presumably unpatched) driver in Feisty. The thing seems to work fairly well, but is not calibrated. Indeed I can not move the mouse into the outer 10 pixels of the screen, presumably because of the way it is calibrated. Also MinX, MaxX, MinY and MaxY are ignored. Since I want my problem fixed, I'm happy to test out this driver, I'd like help with the following questions (some of them dumb, sorry). * Who/what should I talk to in Xorg about this. * Since MaxX and friends are ignored, how do you access the "unimproved" options. * Where do I get the patch. * Can/should I try this on Feisty Fawn which I have currently installed, even though the patch is for Gutsy. If so, how. * Since (I have found) MaxX and friends are ignored in the unpatched evdev, how did the calibration ever work? * If MaxX & friends is ignored, how do I use this improved calibration? -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
RE: Today's Menlow Daily Build
The fix that Rob committed was to moblin-image-creator, and there has not been a Gutsy release of that package since before his changes. BTW, you can see this by looking at the changelog: http://www.moblin.org/repos/?p=tools/moblin-image-creator.git;a=blob_pla in;f=debian/changelog;hb=HEAD When ever a given version is released to Gutsy, then you will see a "gutsy" next to the version instead of "UNRELEASED". The last release was 0.11, where Rob's changes are in 0.15. --rusty -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Johnson, Charles F Sent: Monday, July 30, 2007 11:23 AM To: ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: Today's Menlow Daily Build Does anyone know if the 07/30 daily build for Menlow/Crownbeach include Rob's changes for MOBLIN bug #35 ??
