Matt,
No, I haven't pointed out mythtv functionality specifically. Mythtv will
work with a mouse and since a touchscreen functions just like a mouse (just
a different /dev device in the xorg.conf file), there really isn't anything
special that needs to be done. You can navigate the menus simply by putting
your finger on them. I did it because, well lets face it, although some
folks are adept at using remotes, others are well, not. The menu system in
MythTV is easy enough to navigate with a touchscreen for those who can't
figure out the (typically) mislabeled remote or don't care to try. Besides,
it was a fun project 8). Best source is probably the IBM article pointed
out earlier:

Thanks,
Greg
I saw an article on slashdot the other day that pointed to your IBM
article.

I think it's interesting that you were able to make this work with
myth... have you shared how you made myth work with the touchscreen
before? I think there are lots of people out there that might like
this kind of functionality. Good work!
