Touchscreen pb x11

Post by profecie » 2015/05/19 13:59:36

Hello,

I try to deploy CentOS 6.1 on embedded system with touchscreen working on serial port with driver developped and tested on many other linux like ubuntu or Debian but it doesn't work correctly on centos.


cat /proc/bus/input/devices
display the device:

I: Bus=0013 Vendor=002a Product=0000 Version=0110
N: Name="eTurboTouch Serial TouchScreen"
P: Phys=ttyXR4/serio0/input0
S: Sysfs=/devices/serio2/input/input9
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=mouse2 event6
B: EV=b
B: KEY=400 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
B: ABS=3

and
cat /dev/input/mouse2
ou
cat /dev/input/event6
display the event correctly
But nothing happened and cursor doesn't move.I tried to modify xorg.conf but without success

Can you help me?
Thank you in advance

Why on earth are you using CentOS 6.1? That's over 4 years old. The current version is 6.6 and contains many updates to drivers, kernel and packages. Many of those updates are for security purposes but other improve hardware support.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
