what would be useful is to find out the actual current screen resolution, not the virtual screen. Otherwise, the touchscreen behaves as if covering the whole virtual screen. I want just the visible screen. I don't think it would be useful to know what the viewing window is. I'll check on that modeline api, thanks. I am surprised this has not been solved in other drivers though. bruno _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
