Benjamin Meeusen, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-evdev REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
This diatribe of information was useful getting my 8 Xenarc 800TSV screen working with the evdev driver on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS but the volume of info was such that it was hard to figure out what was the right thing to do vs the wrong thing to do. So I wanted to summarize what I did so others could avoid the pain..My final solution works very well. To make it clear I was not dealing with old conflicts, I did a fresh bare metal install of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS before starting this. First I want to add that I tried to use the EETI.com.tw drivers and I had a couple of problems with them. 1. The xorg.conf file does not exist on a new Ubuntu 10.04 install, but the eGalax driver 3.07... at this time does not recognize that so the install silently fails. That is a pretty big bug.You have to create an xorg.conf file and put something in the file, like a single space character and then save it. Then run the driver script file install for it to operate properly. 2. On initial logon with the EETI.com.tw driver, with version 3.07. the touch screen does not function. If I log out and then back in, it works fine. While this might be acceptable for some, my application does not use a mouse or keyboard which means that logging in without a touchscreen is a dead end, total deal killer. OK.. so on to what I did after a baremetal install of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: 1. To be safe, edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and add a line at the end that says blacklist usbtouchscreen (don't include the quotes) 2. Following the directions in comment #18 above, edit the /etc/default/grub file and add the usbhid.quirks ... to the end of the line. 3. At a command prompt run: update-grub to make the grub changes permanent 4. Reboot your computer with your touch screen attached.It should work.. sort of .. the mouse pointer should respond to a tap and drag.. 5. If you look at the X log file: /var/log/xorg.0.log and do a search for egalax, after some reading you will see that the OS has decided that you really have a tablet and not a touch screen.. You might say Oh no... but really who cares if it works! 6. Edit this file: /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/05-evdev.conf and add in the section called tablet catchall, a line after the line that says; Driver evdev . Make the next line this: Option InvertY true 7. Save the file and reboot. The X and Y axis movements via the touch screen should be correct, but the calibration will be wrong. 7. Go to this site http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xinput_calibrator 8. Download the package labeled Ubuntu 10.04 and save the file. 9. Double click on the file and install the software. 10. Run the calibrator software that is installed under menu...system, administrative 11. Make a note of the calibration numbers it delivers - the first 4 numbers in sequence. 12. Again, edit the file: /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/05-evdev.conf and add a line below the InvertY line that says: Option Calibration xx xx xx xx where the xx's are the four numbers you just wrote down from the calibration routine. 13. Save the file and reboot. 14. The touchscreen should be fully functional! :-) If you find any errors in this, please add a comment. Also if you can improve on this, please add a comment. We are all better off when we share our sucess. :-) Dave -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549447 Title: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/utouch/+bug/549447/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
Hi, Can someone point me to the right direction. When I was using Ubuntu Maverick, it was a pain to get my eGalax touch screen working. But when Natty came out, it worked right out of the box, except for the inverted y-axis, which I didn't mind, since I could just reverse the y coordinates numbers of the 99-calibrator.conf file to get it right. However, now it regressed under oneiric, and I lost control of my touchscreen. I remember once trying a different kernel during the Maverick days and it got it working, but I forgot where I got that kernel from, but I remember it was part of kernels being tested and higher up in version than the one in Maverick. So is this a kernel issue or an evdev issue?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
With kernel 2.6.37rc1 it finally worked! The calibration was a little tricky but now everything is working. First i installed the kernel image and headers from Chase Douglas' link and the upper-left corner problem fixed. Then i ran xinput_calibrator and it gave me a snippet to add in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf The tricky part was that the calibration wasn't correct. I added manually the InverAxes option and now everything is OK. The only think im not sure is that there are 2 devices instead of 1. Should i just disable one?

The kernel will be packaged and published soon to: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ If you can, please test the kernel to see if it fixes the issues.

Hey, I've been having the same trouble that Emmanouel is suffering from. I'm basically trying to run Maverick on a WeTab. Everything appears to run fine but as soon as I touch the touchscreen, the courser jumps up to the left corner. I've tried pretty much everything that's mentioned here (blacklisting, running the eGalaxTouchdriver, quirks, evdev.conf entries with calibrations that I took right out of the WeTab's original os conf files...but still no cigar). My log also shows the touchscreen being recognized as a tablet (and an error regarding evdev-grail and no support for gestures). I'm thinking I might switch to another release of Ubuntu, it looks like people are having better luck with 9.04... Any help would be super appreciated.

Hi MacRules, thanks to point to xinput_calibrator .deb package (at last!).

hi CMD, you are welcome, thanks for pointing out the PPA :)! I am on 10.04 now and already tried the vendor driver with no succes. It also did not work on 9.10. When I blacklist usbtouchscreen, there is no device loaded and nothing is recognised in Xorg. About the vendor: I do not know exactly. Unfortunately the drivers are binary and they do not work for me. I did not find a contact email adress, I think I should look harder :). I prefer evdev, but it seems hard. With usbtouchscreen driver loaded i get a proper input device, but no input if i touch the screen. This has been the problem from the beginning: no input is registered. When usbtouchscreen is loaded, input -list says: Sensing Win7-TwoFinger id=15 [slave pointer (2)] (when not loaded it is not there.)

I used the livecd Maverick Alpha 3 Netbook. Without the usbhid.quirks option, the cursor stays in the upper left corner. With the usbhid.quirks option, I can use xinput_calibrator, set the 'Evdev Axes Swap' and the 'Evdev Axis Inversion' to 1 and have a working touchscreen.

With the quirks option, xorg detects two devices for my touchscreen, one TABLET and one MOUSE, both with the same name. Is this normal behaviour?

Hi Erik, not all eGalax controllers are HID compatible devices and needs a special driver (touchscreen module) instead of evdev.

OK. I am very excited! I followed cmd_'s post #18, with the calibration information put into '/usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/05-evdev.conf', as in post #20. guess what? It works beautifully!

I'm having the same problems as you, cmd_, but I rely heavily in workarounds. I nailed in my KDE Autostart two desktop files, running this. xinput set-int-prop 11 Evdev Axis Calibration 32 45 4008 121 3978 xinput set-int-prop 12 Evdev Axis Calibration 32 45 4008 121 3978 So, I simply assure myself that both eGalax devices (the true one and the fake one) are calibrated. One feature of xinput values is that you can set bogus values for a device that doesn't support them, so I use it. The place to have these settings is not udev rules; is this: /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf Copy that file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d Fedora 13 and Lucid share their configuration mechanism: a pure UDEV mechanism.

It is good to see you guys still working on this. I installed the eGalax tool, and it worked ok (upside-down), but seemed to have some kind of conflict with the evdev driver (evdev seemed to take preference over eGalax when it was not disabled.) I did the xinput -test on each device, and noticed that both output the co-ordinates, so my earlier suggestion of it not recognising the screen size was complete rubbish! You all probably had got there way before me, but I thought I would add it in case someone who did not know started frantically to 'fix' this issue, which is not an issue at all! This all suggests to me that it should be something relatively simple- after all, evdev is registering the co-ordinates and the clicks, but not quite putting them together.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
Hello everyone, i have found a solution that at least works for me, but I am m pretty sure that it will also work for most of you guys.I Use Ubuntu 10.04 and have an eGalaxy USB-Touchpannel(Driver: eGalaxTouch-3.00.3719) Of course the first step was to install the eGalaxy drivers as mentioned by cmd_, quote: With 10.04 rc, setup.sh from the eGalax driver needs a few modifications to proper install: -blacklist file points to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, - change to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf -install script fail if xorg.conf file doesn't exist, - create file -install script also fail if ServerLayout section in xorg.conf isn't present, - add section Maximka's way of fixing the problem is right.Here is what I have done, step by step: s...@7up:~$ xinput -list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2[master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointerid=4[slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=15 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Macintosh mouse button emulation id=16 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ egalaxid=6[slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ eGalax Inc. Touch id=11 [slave pointer (2)] As you can see xinput-list showas two egalaxy devices, by using the command: xinput -test egalax and xinput -test eGalax Inc. Touch I recognized that the false click to the upper left corner is done by the device with the name eGalax Inc. Touch. So the next step is to deactivate this device, by taking a look at the device properties with the command: xinput -list-props eGalax Inc.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
More on this. I'm now with Fedora 13 (using a very Lucid-like system) and the behaviour was exactly as described in this bug. Booting with the 2.6.32 kernel provided by Fedora 12 makes my touchscreen work properly, but it gets detected as two devices instead of one. The problem is narrowed to a Fedora 12 only patch for 2.6.32, that introduced HID_QUIRK_MULTI_INPUT for eGalax touchscreens in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-quirks.c. We are demanding the return of that patch to Fedora 13, to divide the touchscreen in 2 device, but conquer the touchscreening here. If we can get X to recognize the touchscreen as a tablet, or as a whatever that gives reliable X and Y coordinates, and answer to touch, we are done. Keep an eye on this, Ubuntu followers! The source of this issue is this. It is not evdev, it's the kernel. And that patch is the solution. I'll report my advances getting this fixed under Fedora 13. -- eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
The question isn't why that app isn't in Ubuntu repositories, because chances are that app was never made, and vapourware naturally doesn't exist in any repo. My question is another. Why this program isn't in Ubuntu repos? http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xinput_calibrator That is a generic XInput calibrator. Works like a charm with evtouch, and can write UDEV rules (perfect for Lucid). Please, check this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473144 . With that info and the HAL rule there, my eGalax touchscreen works in Fedora 12 (with HAL). Can you work a little with that HAL rule, turn it into an UDEV rule, and make my touchscreen work? ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #473144 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473144 -- eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
This is affecting me too (on an HP tx1000 series, new install of Lucid on a new HDD). I have no real idea about these things, but am wondering if it is some kind of configuration which needs to be written. For instance if whatever tells it how to work thinks that the screen is 0 x 0 pixels because it has not been told otherwise. That, presumably would send it to the top left hand corner? I think this adds weight to the need for a calibration programme, like there was in an earlier version of Ubuntu (Gutsy?). If one of you clever people can come up with a little how-to for the thick but brave (or stupid!) like me, that would be awesome! Thanks, and keep up the good work!

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
Yes, without doubt, we need an application WITH GUI (like the eGalax solution) to calibrate all touchscreens covered by evdev driver. I see a lot of people that made a little app for doing this, but none of them are in the ubuntu repositories. Check this blueprints: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/mobile-general-resolution-for-touchscreen-handling and the detailed version here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyTouchscreenHandling In this last link you can notice a gui app to setup a touchscreen, not only calibration tool, also precision, swap axes, timeouts.. why this app isn't in actual ubuntu releases (and repositories)? -- eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I also ran into this bug when upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 RC on an Asus 901 modified with touchscreen that uses eGalax driver. Everything worked great prior to upgrade but I got the same jump to upper left corner type of behavior no matter what version of eGalax driver I used.

With a ubuntu 9.10 fresh install + eGalax driver ( 3.00.3719 or 3.01.4001 beta from the eGalax website) works well! But with a ubuntu 10.04 rc + eGalax driver or evtouch, appear the problem commented by Benjamin, Every touch makes the cursor move to the upper left corner and register the click there. With 10.04 rc, setup.sh from the eGalax driver needs a few modifications to proper install: -blacklist file points to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, - change to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf -install script fail if xorg.conf file doesn't exist, - create file -install script also fail if ServerLayout section in xorg.conf isn't present, - add section Anyway this latest problems from setup.sh script isn't a bug from ubuntu package. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 549447] Re: eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet
The above happened while the usbtouchscreen module was blacklisted (this was needed for the eGalax module). If I let the usbtouchscreen module load, the touchscreen is configured as a touchscreen. But 'xinput list-props' shows only two axis labels (Abs X and Abs Y), and only part of the touches are registered. 'xinput test' shows very little output (a simple movement shows a couple of lines) while touching all over the screen, e.g. it shows 'button press', then I touch the screen a lot, it shows some 'motion...' output, and then after some touching it shows 'button release'. If I then do 'rmmod usbtouchscreen' and plug the touchscreen (usb) out and back in, the touchscreen is configured as tablet and all touches make the cursor go to the upper left corner. It is also showing 4 axis labels (Abs X, Y, Z and Rotary X). 'xinput test' shows considerably more output than before (where a simple movement now shows 100 lines) If I then load the usbtouchscreen module again (modprobe usbtouchscreen) and plug the touchscreen out and in, it stays registered as tablet (also after X restart, should that matter). -- eGalax touchscreen configured as tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
