Did again some experiments: http://www.scirocco-5v-turbo.de/atp/atp-frank-try-2.tar.gz 1. Put Johannes/my userspace stuff into your driver skeleton and switched from relative to absolute values. 2. Got the accumulator working. One remaining problem: dev->data delivers incomplete packages too. But accumulation needs full datasets - at least the first package, wich is everytime incomplete or crap. I don't know exactly how to fix this and used dev->urb->transfer_buffer and dev->urb->actual_length to figure this out and getting the data. 3. Instead of using the raw accumulator I use now an additional signal shaped copy for calculations. In this copy all changes of the accumulator are delayed a bit (think of an equalizer, wich holds the peak for some time). This way we get a smoother overall signal without having to hold previous values. 4. Calculation of positions is done in a different way then before. Used a little bit statistics (mean calculation) and your istart/iend code (wich was meant for finger detection). Short description: * get the first and last sensor with signal above min threshold * multiply pressure with position for each sensor between them and cumulate the results * divide the result by the sum of all pressure signals * here we go with our calculated position Side effect: People with big fingers are able to use this driver and it's possible to use the flat finger instead of the finger tip. 5. Send the maximum reported pressure instead of a static value to input (ABS_PRESSURE). Then the driver is far less sensitive when used without synaptics. 6. Changed YFACT to 43 (from native screen resolution 1280x854 I come to 64x43). If we use touchpad dimensions here it's 40 at least. Perhaps you can reuse some of these things.
