[pkg-fso-maint] The state of things with the touchscreen

Hello,

please remind me what needs to be done to get the touchscreen to work:

 - I purged HAL.
 - This is my xorg.conf:
   # Xorg confiugration for an Openmoko FreeRunner
   Section "InputDevice"
           Identifier      "Configured Touchscreen"
           Driver          "tslib"
           Option          "CorePointer"           "true"
           Option          "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
           Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/event1"
           Option          "Protocol"              "Auto"
           Option          "Width"                 "480"
           Option          "Height"                "640"
   EndSection
   
   Section "Device"
           Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
           Driver          "glamo"
   EndSection
 - xserver-xorg-input-tslib is version 0.0.6-2
 - xinput list is:
   ⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
   ⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
   ⎜   ↳ Configured Touchscreen                  	id=6	[slave  pointer  (2)]
   ⎜   ↳ "s3c2410 TouchScreen"                   	id=8	[slave  pointer  (2)]
   ⎣ Virtual core keyboard                   	id=3	[master keyboard (2)]
       ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard             	id=5	[slave  keyboard (3)]
       ↳ "PCF50633 PMU events"                   	id=7	[slave  keyboard (3)]
       ↳ "Neo1973 Buttons"                       	id=9	[slave  keyboard (3)]
 - cat /dev/input/event1 spits data if I tickle the touchscreen

Touching the screen will turn on backlight (which should be handled by
xscreensaver as fsousaged is not running).

However, it works erratically. If I click a button it seems to get the press
event but not the release (so it doesn't click). And this doesn't work
always: for quite long periods I can't seem to get any reaction at all.

What else is missing?


Ciao,

Enrico
