1. How to run Elographics Touchscreen
Hi,
I have a problem getting an Elographics touchscreen to work.
I've installed the new XF86S3_G-Beta-Server and after running xdm,
everything seems to work fine.
The messages in xdm-errors:
XFree86 Version 3.1.2G / X Window System
...
(**) module xf86Elo.so successfully loaded from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules
...
(**) Mouse: type: Microsoft, device: /dev/mouse, baudrate: 1200
...
(**) Elographics input port: /dev/touchpad
(**) Elographics X device name: Elo
(**) Elographics minimum x position: 0
(**) Elographics maximum x position: 1024
(**) Elographics minimum y position: 0
(**) Elographics maximum y position: 1024
(**) Elographics associated screen: 0
(**) Elographics untouch delay: 100 ms
(**) Elographics report delay: 100 ms
...
(**) Adding extended device "Elo" (type: ELO TouchScreen)
Warning: Actions not found: restart-display
The char-device /dev/touchpad is a link to /dev/ttyS1 because, it seems
to be that /dev/ttyS1 is hardcoded in xf86Elo.so, as shown by grep on
this file.
When I try to use 'xsetpointer "Elo"' the following errormessages
occurs:
X Error of failed request: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input
device
Major opcode of failed request: 131 (XInputExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_OpenDevice)
Serial number of failed request: 12
Current serial number in output stream: 12
But 'xsetpointer -l' shows that the Elo touchscreen is a possible
XExtensionDevice :
"" [XPointer]
"" [XKeyboard]
"Elo" [XExtensionDevice]
So, what is the problem??
Is it necessary to write a kerneldriver for this device?
I don't know how to get it working.
I hope there is anybody who can help to solve this problem.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
With best Regards,
