Running ts_calibrate for touchscreen on emmbedded Linux enviorment
Hey guys, I am trying to figure out why this touchscreen is not working. I am attempting to run ts_calibrate which (on my kernel) can be found @ usr/bin When I run the script:
I am assuming I need to provide an argument so I am trying to figure out what the ts would be called. I check out /dev/input:
It's not showing up here unless its event0 or event1 any idea what the problem might be. The ts is plugged in via a usb cable. Is there somewhere in the kernel I can probe to find out if the board is recognizing the ts?
EDIT: I tried:
EDIT: So a little detail. I had a working ts and it broke (still works but screen is cracked) oredered a replacement. Plug that replacement in and it while it does show the application you can't interact with it. An lsusb with the old device plugged it shows three usb devices:
and if you look above you will see that an lsusb with the new device only shows two. Perhaps this is a usb issue? Is there a usb configuration script I need to run perhaps?
I use /bin/ksh
As we know that if we export an enviorment in command terminal, then the enviorment can be used in that termial , it can not take effect in other terminals .

PALMAX(4x)PALMAX(4x)NAME
palmax - Palmax (TR88L803) touchscreen driver
SYNOPSIS
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "idevname"
Driver "palmax"
Option "Device" "devpath"
...
EndSection
DESCRIPTION
palmax is an XFree86 input driver for the Palmax PD1000/PD1100
The palmax driver functions as a pointer input device, and is normally used as the X server's core pointer. It supports positioning and
mouse buttons using the touchscreen display and lid buttons on the Palmax machines.
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
Palmax PD1000, Palmax PD1100. In theory also any other system using a TR88L803 wired to a serial port.
CONFIGURATION DETAILS
Please refer to XF86Config(5x) for general configuration details and for options that can be used with all input drivers. This section
only covers configuration details specific to this driver.
The following driver options are supported
Option "MinX" "integer"
Set the left hand X value from the touchscreen, for calibration.
Option "MaxX" "integer"
Set the right hand X value from the touchscreen, for calibration.
Option "MinY" "integer"
Set the top Y value from the touchscreen, for calibration.
Option "MaxY" "integer"
Set the bottom Y value from the touchscreen, for calibration.
Option "Screen" "integer"
The screen to attach to the touchscreen when running with multiple screens. The default is screen 0.
Option "Device" "string"
The serial port that is attached to the touchscreen interface. On the Palmax PD1000 and PD1100 this is ttyS0.
Option "DeviceName" "string"
Set the X11 device name for the touchscreen. This defaults to TOUCHSCREEN.
Option "PortraitMode" "string"
Set the display orientation. The default is "landscape" but you can rotate the screen clockwise ("portrait") or anticlockwise ("por-
traitCCW").
Option "SwapXY" "boolean"
Swap the X and Y values on the display. The default is false.
Option "TapButton" "boolean"
Set the touchscreen tap to act as mouse button 1. This allows single handed operation except when using the menu buttons. The
default is false.
BUGS
The driver has been tested on the Palmax systems, the defaults reflect the Palmax hardware and should work out of the box. No testing has
been done on other systems using the same digitizer.
Support for a double-tap menu button option would be nice.
The smoothing algorithm would benefit from real mathematics.
XFree86 needs a nice calibration tool.
