Hi With the factory flashed eMMC image , the 4DCape-70T was detected on boot up, and a calibration screen was launched before the GUI. This calibration application included a countdown timer , shown using a animated color circle in the middle of the screen. Everything worked nicely on a quick test.
Using http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian, I used a 8Gb uSD card to flash the jessie debian testing image from 2015-1-27 to get access to qtcreator (for qt 5) via apt-get. [ https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2015-01-27/lxqt-4gb/BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-jessie-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2015-01-27-4gb.img.xz ] The 4DCape-70T didnt work on boot up, but required adding in a dtb=am335x-boneblack-4dcape-70t.dtb line in /boot/uEnv.txt and rebooting. The LCD cape works for display, but the calibration application wasn't installed. I did install a "libts-bin" from wheezy , and can run ts_calibrate, but this isn't the same version (or maybe not even the same program) as above. It looked partially the same, but for instance had no timer, counting down. I presume that the timer was added, because it was added into the boot-up sequence. However, even with the version of ts_calibrate it still is very badly calibrated, with the boundary areas inaccessible, and has ghost input / skipping the cursor around the screen. Any hints how to get back to the calibration program via the factory flashed version of Debian? I can offer to port it to Debian testing BBB image. :-D Less important, since i can patch around it, but what changed between the (presumably) Wheezy image and jessie image, so that the cape isn't automatically available anymore?
