Yea - they went plug and pray too :) >I have been working with Keytec for two weeks to get a serial magic touch >screen to work with 10.04.

I think >Keytec is working on it. The 3M calibration file needs Java to run and works thankfully, bizarrely it even works even when the touch screen doesn't after first start up! >Will you post your xorg.conf file? Sure - here it is. The 3M driver failed to install initially, but they have some troubleshooting hints in their readme file. That was because xorg.conf didn't exist. X -configure created a basic Xorg.conf file then the driver install worked, just not with the correct parameters! You get some warnings update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/TWDrvStartup missing LSB keyword 'required-start' update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/TWDrvStartup missing LSB keyword 'required-stop' update-rc.d: warning: TWDrvStartup start runlevel arguments (2 3 4 5) do not match LSB Default-Start values (2 5) update-rc.d: warning: TWDrvStartup stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (0 1 3 4 6) A suggestion on the ubuntu forum says edit the install files to stop these, but in reality it makes no difference to the not loading from cold or the behaviour of the screen after log off/on again. BTW - The only lines the driver added were the MT7 line in the server layout and the last inputdevice section at the foot of the file. I had to add the Mouse0 section to get it to work.
