Configuring Xfree86 for vr41xx touch panel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi everyone,
im running XFree86 4.3.0.1 on an Alchemy1100 MIPS Webpad with touchscreen.
Using the framebuffer-xserver Xfbdev everything works fine when running "Xfbdev -mouse /dev/touchscreen".....
But i dont have a clue how to configure XFree86 to use the touchscreen as a pointer....


My idea was to use the touchscreen as a mouse :-) by adding this to "/etc/X11/XF86Config.4":
----------------------------------------------------------
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/touchscreen"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
EndSection
--------------------------------------------------------


Now the pointer reacts on touching the screen by jumping around.

The first thing i have no idea of is the protocol the touchscreen is working with.
I also tried "Auto" and "BusMouse" but this also didn't improve my pointer illness.


The second thing i'm not sure about is the driver to use for a touchscreen..
The support for it is coded in the Kernel with the following informations about my "/dev/touchscreen" from "/kernel-source-2.4.26/Documentation/devices.txt":
-----------------------------------------------------------
11 = /dev/vrtpanel Vr41xx embedded touch panel
-----------------------------------------------------------


Can anyone tell me how to configure XFree86 for working with my touchscreen properly?

Reagrds,
Michael
