Hi, the usbtouchscreen driver as included in kernel 2.6.19 almost works with the itm based touchscreen that I have (an LG L1730SF).
I reported earlier that the screen does not provide valid x and y values when the screen is not touched and the driver was modified (see return of function itm_read_data) to not use these values. The problem however is that when itm_read_data returns 0 (when the screen is not touched), the generic part (usbtouch_process_pkt) returns without updating the BTN_TOUCH status. So in short, when using an itm screen the driver never sends BTN_TOUCH with a zero value. The attached patch causes the itm driver to remember valid x and y values and send the last valid ones when the screen is not touched. I am not sure if this is the best approach, but I did not want to mess with the generic driver part. regards jp diff usbtouchscreen.orig.c usbtouchscreen.c --- usbtouchscreen.orig.c 2006-12-08 11:24:13.000000000 +0200 +++ usbtouchscreen.c 2006-12-08 10:34:54.000000000 +0200 @@ -254,12 +254,21 @@ #ifdef CONFIG_USB_TOUCHSCREEN_ITM static int itm_read_data(unsigned char *pkt, int *x, int *y, int *touch, int *press) { - *x = ((pkt[0] & 0x1F) << 7) | (pkt[3] & 0x7F); - *y = ((pkt[1] & 0x1F) << 7) | (pkt[4] & 0x7F); - *press = ((pkt[2] & 0x01) << 7) | (pkt[5] & 0x7F); + static int validx = 0; + static int validy = 0; + *touch = ~pkt[7] & 0x20; + *press = ((pkt[2] & 0x01) << 7) | (pkt[5] & 0x7F); - return *touch; + if (*touch) { + validx = ((pkt[0] & 0x1F) << 7) | (pkt[3] & 0x7F); + validy = ((pkt[1] & 0x1F) << 7) | (pkt[4] & 0x7F); + } + + *x = validx; + *y = validy; + + return 1; } #endif -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright, terms and conditions and e-mail legal notice.
