nanogui: Thread: Re: [Handhelds] Microwindows touch screen driver

Hi Xiaoyong,

Happy New Year!

The answer is simple. You just set the macro 'ADSMOUSE = Y' as follows and set
other mouse or touch screen driver macro to 'N'.
You should compile without error.

ADSMOUSE                 = Y


Alternatively, you may copy config.arm to config and build. Try.

cp config.arm config


Have a nice compiling!
Eric Wong.

Subject:  [Handhelds] Microwindows touch screen driver



Hi Eric,
I have read your message in the site
http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/pipermail/linux-arm/2000-September/000036.html
. You have successfully downloaded Microwindows to the Assabet board,
right.? I would like to ask you something about the touch screen.
After I run the "make xconfig", I just follow what you said choose the Frame
buffer option and touch screen option. Other than that I choose  all the
option in Library option and some other default options..
When I ran the "make clean; make", it stops in the half way. From the error
message it seems that it  cannot find the touch screen driver.  The screen
shot is attached behind.
Could you please tell me what exact options you have chosen? Should I try
touch pad instead? Or should I look for the touch screen by myself?
Merry X'mas.
Regards,
Xiaoyong

Hi Eric,
Thanks for your suggestion. 
But I found neither of the solution can solve my problem. After I port the
binary to the Assabet it still looks for the touch screen driver. The first
solution is the same as choose touch screen in the xconfig windows, right? I
tried it before. The error message for the second method is " cannot
initialize mouse, cannot open graphics ". Should I place microwindows in the
same directory as my Linux kernel? Should I port the library to the board
also?
I am looking forward to hear from you.
Regards,
Xiaoyong

Yang -

Does your kernel have touch screen driver support enabled?  Most often
this is the biggest problem.  Check for
the file /dev/ts.  If it doesn't exist, thats your problem.  Its also
possible that you are using the wrong driver.  Go to the drivers
directory
in microwindows and ensure that the file mou_ads.o exists.  If not, then
you probably compiled the wrong driver.

Happy new year,
Jordan

Hi Xiaoyong,
Please  try the following method to create /dev/ts if you don't have this.

mount -o loop -t ext2 ramdisk /mnt
mknod /mnt/ts c 11 0
umount /mnt
cat ramdisk | gzip -v9 >ramdisk.gz

and then download the zImage and ramdisk.gz by using angelboot utility.


Eric Wong.

Dear  all,
Thanks for your help.
But the problem is not slove yet.
I have already tried using mknod to create the "ts (touch screen)"
devices. Even though it does not work for me either. Now on the Assabet
board the error message has changed to " can not initialize the touch
screen driver" instead of "cannot initialize the mouse".

Last time I forgot to tell you one thing. My mouse driver does not work
even when I choose "compile in Linux native". When I run the demo on my
PC  I have to choose "no mouse" instead of " GPM mouse".

Now I am planning to change my Hardhat linux kernel to Armlinux kernel.

Could you please tell me what other methods I could try?
Regards,
xiaoyong

Hi, YANG XIAOYONG


The error message for the second method is " cannot initialize mouse,
cannot open graphics "
 With error: cannot initialize mouse, you must read your linux-kernel
code, then make a device file of your mouse driver.
 With error: cannot open graphics, you must make a device file of your
framebuffer driver.
 You can input " mknod -m 666 fb0 c 29 0 " at "/dev/".

 Wish can help you.
