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:
Code:
root:/usr/bin# ts_calibrate
xres = 1920, yres = 1080
tslib: Selected device is not a touchscreen (must support ABS and KEY event types)
Took 2 samples...
Top left : X = 8286377 Y = 1069793554
Took 2 samples...
Top right : X = 8286377 Y = 1069793554
Took 2 samples...
Bot right : X = 8286377 Y = 1069793554
Took 2 samples...
Bot left : X = 8286377 Y = 1069793554
Took 2 samples...
Center : X = 8286377 Y = 1069793554
-0.958901 -1.531372 0.011863
0.022433 0.438339 -0.003395
 Calibration constants: -62842 -100359 777 1470 28726 -222 65536

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:


Code:
root:/dev/input# ls
by-path  event0   event1   mice

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:


Code:
root:/usr/bin# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:2514  
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002  
root:/usr/bin# ts_calibrate 1d6b:0002
xres = 1920, yres = 1080
tslib: Selected device is not a touchscreen (must support ABS and KEY event types)
Took 2 samples...
Top left : X = 3393705 Y = 1066797322
Took 2 samples...
Top right : X = 3393705 Y = 1066797322
Took 2 samples...
Bot right : X = 3393705 Y = 1066797322
Took 2 samples...
Bot left : X = 3393705 Y = 1066797322
Took 2 samples...
Center : X = 3393705 Y = 1066797322
1.794245 -0.361181 0.001150
0.509386 -0.060413 0.000193
Calibration constants: 117587 -23670 75 33383 -3959 12 65536 
 root@:/usr/bin#


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:


Code:
root@ccimx6qpsbc:/# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 2808:81c9  
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:2514  
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002


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?

palmax

PALMAX(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual							 PALMAX(4)

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(5) 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.
