Hi Everyone, I have tiny210v2, I have ported Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on it. It's 7" Capacitive touch screen (S70) is not working. But when I port Qtopia touch works fine. I am also getting some data in (#cat /dev/input/event4) in Ubuntu but cursor is not moving.Please help what to do.!!! Thanks Praveen
Have you installed tslib and linked qt to tslb library yet?
Hello Pravin,
Same problem with my Beaglebone black board and chipsee 7" LCD
with ubuntu 12.04 operating system. I am also getting some data in (#cat
/dev/input/event1). But on the GUI there is no cursor and touch is also not
working.If you find any solution please let me know. Thanking you.

Hi, You need to use tslib to capture touchscreen events and map them to cursor moves. Maybe this can help you http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/xorg-edgers/precise/main/base/xserv... Regards
Hello,

how to map touchscreen events to cursor moves. Thanking you.

Please tell me how you managed to get ubuntu on your tiny210v2!! There is a serious lack of documentation here on that, and no pre-built stuff like there is for the others on the FTP/DVDs.
hello, how do I put ubuntu 12.04 on my tiny210v2. Please I need help. The steps to install ubuntu is not equal to install qtopia? where can I find a .img ubuntu file equivalent to ''rootfs_qtopia_qt4.img''
Hi, You can have a look at the near end of this post. Reggie has translated the readme textfile using google. http://www.friendlyarm.net/forum/topic/4708 @Kishor Dhanawade : I'm not sure it is possible to use capacitive touchscreen with ubuntu. As far as I understood, tslib needs some kind of "plugin" to acquire signal. Resistive one has been released as open source by FriendlyARM if I'm right. But I've not seen anything for capacitive plugin. So it is not actually possible to compile it with ubuntu toolchain. But asking FriendlyARM, maybe they can give the source code ?
it probably needs xf86 tslib driver.
Reggie is that for the cap touch? (xf86 tslib)
I searched for that but on debian it resolves to xserver-xorg-input-tslib via a search on apt. It still doesn't work for some reason, tbh I'm thinking about seeing if I can make it work by the same hack as I used on the 1wire driver. no need for all this hoop jumping just set it up as an event device.
