Hi Dmitry,

Thanks for your quick reply.

The way I read the gt911 dataheet I also understand that only the INT line is
required to enter sleep mode but I don't other for the other supported 
controllers.  My comment is based on both the suspend() and resume() functions 
returning in the absence of either gpiod_int or gpiod_rst and not progressing 
to the sleep sequence.

That was my first impression too. However this does not work for my device. My
hypothesis is that the touch controller I2C address setting sequence is not 
happening as it should, so I need at least the control of the INT line in 
order to fix the I2C address.

I am unsure though whether this is a problem specific to the design I am 
testing with or all designs will have problems setting the I2C address without 
controlling the INT GPIO line.

Regards,
Alex
