This forum thread saved my ti touch screen device. Thanks all! My touchscreen was having the exact symptoms mentioned in the first few posts. A drop in 'touch' pressure would cause the x-coordinates to drastically deviate from where I was touching. This made functionality of something, like a UI scroll-bar, useless.
I was using a v3.12 linux kernel, but was still able to modify the ti_am335x_tsc.c from the v3.8 patch that was listed here. For future users, if you need a patch for the 3.12 kernel, you can find it here. https://github.com/EricZaluzec/ti_am335x_tsc/blob/master/remove-pressure-jitter.patch Cheers. -Ez On Tuesday, September 3, 2013 at 6:47:44 AM UTC-5, Anguel wrote: > > Hi! > > I have a 4DCAPE-43T LCD and tested it with Beaglebone Black and the latest > Angstrom image (2013.08.21).
