Hello,
Assuming you are using Bitbake first make a copy of the directfb directory
located in gumstix-oe\com.gumstix.collection\packages and move it to
user.collection\packages\directfb. Then configure directfb for use with
tslib by editing your directfb_1.1.x.bb file so EXTRA_OECONF looks something
similar to this:
EXTRA_OECONF = " \
--with-gfxdrivers=none \
--with-inputdrivers=tslib \
--enable-libmpeg3=no \
--enable-freetype=yes \
--enable-sdl=no \
--enable-vnc=no \
--enable-fbdev \
--disable-x11 \
TSLIB_CFLAGS=\"-I${INSTALL_PATH}/include\" \
TSLIB_LIBS=\"-L${INSTALL_PATH}/lib\" \
"
Once everything is compiled and running on your gumstix you will have to
export the following variables:
export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/touchscreen0
export TSLIB_CONFFILE=/etc/ts.conf
export TSLIB_PLUGINDIR=/usr/lib/ts
export TSLIB_CALIBFILE=/etc/pointercal
and make a symbolic link to you touchscreen in /dev/input:
ln –s event0 tslib0
Depending on your touchscreen device name some of these values may be
slightly different however once you get all of this setup hopefully things
will start working out for you.
Good luck
I'm seeing exactly the same behaviour and have the same config. Did you find
a solution or an alternative?
