Bug Description

I report a new bug because it's a different issue but we were discussing it in bug #261873

I would like to see HAL supporting touchscreen calibration with evtouch for the Xenarc 7" 706 series.

In Hardy and in Intrepid, it's basically working well with evtouch except that it's very painful to calibrate and we still didn't succeed to have a good calibration. (The current one was done manually by trying/restarting X/modifying x.org)

I attach the lshal output. The touchscreen is on /dev/input/event2.

[lspci]
00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller [8086:2590] (rev 03)

The calibrate utility accept to launch itself with the Xenarc and seems to work fine. Unfortunatly, it has no effect at all.

If this doesn't require too much work, can we hope to see this in Jaunty ? Is there more information thatI could provide?

In 9.04, calibration is working (it modify the /etc/evtouch/config file and the behaviour of the touchscreen change). The bug that still exists is that values in config file are completely wrong. (you have to reset the values to 0 then invert x and y axis).

I've described my situation on bug #292377.
