Thanks! I'll have a look at it as soon as possible. Good idea to create a build script, I was too lazy to do that...
By looking at your build script, I see that you still use the "ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-" environment variables when you build the kernel. That isn't necesarry anymore (for a long time), you just have to make sure your toolchain is in the path, arm-linux- is put in front automatically. In that way people don't have to install the toolchain in /usr/bin. But adjusting the script is not that hard off course :-) I also would put the kernel version (2.6.12-hh2) in a variable, so the script can very easily be adjusted to a new kernel version. Did you adjust the h4000_ts driver to use 640x480 coordinates? Actually, we should modify that module so we can specify that as a kernel parameter, so we can use the same source for x50 and x50v. I was just thinking about the touchscreen last night. It shouldn't be that hard to make this work, right? I mean, it is obvious that the screen coordinates are just divided by 2. Couldn't we hack the numbers in /etc/pointercal file to adjust for that? Probably just multiplying them by 2 won't work, but we can try, right? Anyway, great work! I hope I have some spare time soon to restart experimenting myself.
