2011-01-23 Thread djp
@Chase,

Thanks for the info. My xorg input module has a touch helper to detect
right clicks etc (like the tablet pc service in windows), I am trying to
get permission to convert this into a patch for possible inclusion into
xorg evdev. I saw your evdev hooks into grails and have been testing the
same with my driver but in the future hope to be able to use evdev
directly.


@Bryce, cheers

2011-01-17 Thread djp
As far as I know the X included with ubuntu does not handle multitouch
input directly. Ubuntu has a multitouch framework called uTouch (not
installed on the desktop edition by default
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch).

If you want to relatively easily test if the kernel multitouch
information is being supplied a good example is the PyMT demo
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/PyMT).

Although my X input driver might be blocking the gesture daemon
somehow...

Anyhow post bug reports at https://bugs.launchpad.net/nwfermi

Ok I have created a launchpad project for nwfermi
(https://launchpad.net/nwfermi). Future nwfermi releases will be posted
there and anyone interested should be able to post bug reports,
questions, etc.

I havent made much progress with creating a source package for the ppa
yet (the various different tools and methods are overwhelming me!) but
should have a multitouch release ready shortly.

Cheers again for all the help Bryce.

@Bryce, cheers that is helpful I will try to make a PPA early next year.
I do have one question, is it possible to put a EULA type agreement (do
not sue us etc) into a deb or PPA?

@Mathijs, there will a multitouch release in January,  I havent seen
nwtool but I will take a look

@WebNuLL @ Aymeric, we already have a calibration facility, I will
explain how to use it in this new release

I am attaching fermi 0.4.5, the main fixes here are:
  - nwfermi_daemon udev coldboot doesnt always work
  - configuration settings are available via named pipe

To start the calibration procedure run the following command:
  ‘echo -e C\x02\x21\x01  /tmp/nwfermi0-tl-in’

The cursor will move to four locations around the screen and to complete
calibration you just need to touch and hold at the cursor positions
untill they move to the next location. Upon successful calibration
settings will be saved to /etc/nextwindow/nw-
fermi/_XX_DriverSettings.dat, you can delete this file to
return to factory defaults.

I hope this is helpful you all.

Cheers,
Dan

 djp, you mentioned earlier an interest in posting this to a PPA.  Do you
 need help with this?  Do you have a plan in place for how you want to be
 distributing it to go into the PPA?

 I think once that is sorted out, it would make it straightforward for us
 to even consider incorporating this into multiverse with other closed
 source drivers, which would make it even easier for Ubuntu users to
 install it.  I'm not sure what the process is for getting additional
 closed source drivers accepted there, so that may or may not be
 feasible, but once it's packaged for PPA I'd be willing to investigate
 for you, if you'd like.

 Maybe you need /usr/sbin/ConsoleDriver to run?

 I think your udev is not loading ConsoleDriver.

 Just try it.


WebNull, could be correct (check ps -e | grep ConsoleDriver).

There should be a udev rules file
(/etc/udev/rules/40-nw-fermi.rules) which starts ConsoleDriver, you
could try changing the udev logging (udevcontrol log_priority) to see
if it is executing properly when nw-fermi probes.

I have attached a new release of nwfermi (0.2).

updates include:
 - new device ids
 - fixed bug in usb completion routine (was using GFP_KERNEL instead of 
GFP_ATOMIC)
 - /rawmouse command line parameter to ConsoleDriver daemon to disable mouse 
filtering (right click, drag thresholds etc)
 - support for new kfifo api in post 2..6.33 kernels

Hopefully this should result in a more stable driver for all users of
nwfermi.

Hi Rob,

all you should need to do is install the nwfermi package attached to
message #31 of this bug.

After that it should work (you might need to reboot,  or insmod the
driver and restart X)

If you have a 1950 device that isnt 1926:0006 you will have to follow
the other instructions in message #31 (adding the hardware ID to
/sys/bus/usb/drivers/nwfermi/new_id)

Hi guys,

I just want to clarify for everyone that there are two classes of
Nextwindow Touchscreens here.

1) 1900 Model, usb id: 1926:0003
   
  These touchscreens have a standard mouse and digitizer HID data supplied from 
the device and can be used with evdev or evtouch drivers.

2) 1950 Model, usb ids 1926:0006,~0060-0099

  There are a bunch of different hardware ids in this class (above is a
rough range). These touchscreens are kinda like the winmodems of the
touchscreen world (hence the need for nwfermi).

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers

Dan
