It's difficult to form it into a question, if i did it would be why doesn't pm-setup detect my touchscreen? I tried doing a cat /dev/ttyS0-5 to no avail.

I opened my machine up and it is using some custom controller board built with the design specs of penmount circuitry.

Hello, I'm trying to get my penmount touchscren to work but it is just not getting detected. I have one of those POS machines that are 100% VIA hardware. It comes with a DMC9000 touchscreen that is connected directly onto the mother board. It looks like a parallel port connector (definitely wider than how a serial port looks like). Every manual I have tells me that it is a RS-232 serial touch screen and uses COM5. I have set up my serial ports with setserial for all 6 of my com ports. I have COM 5 at 19200 baud. Kernel is compiled with penmount driver and it is loaded (as shown in lsmod) I have ttyS0 to ttyS5 When I run pm-setup -s it does not find my DMC9000 on ANY port. I try cat /proc/bus/input/devicesbut I don't see my touchscreen there. Just emulated mouse and my keyboard. I can't figure it out, I can't get this thing to get detected.

[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
Georg Klimm, I can see that after a long process you came to an old conclusion, or well known fact: in the new Xorg server, the server installs the mouse by default. Then, the mouse uses the xev infrastructure which causes the swapping. It is still blurry to me how it manages to get the penmount data and translate it. Nevertheless, the idea is that it gets some input from the penmount device and translates it into the mouse (relative) coordinates. As a result, clicking twice on the screen on the same spot will bring you always on a different place :) What you can do is to remove the mouse_drv by moving the: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/mouse_drv.so to some different file name.

I've not solved the problem to get the data into the penmountdriver, because without the mousedriver there are obviously no data on the /dev/input/mive or /dev/input/mouse Hmm, but on my system the HAL is making the event4 into /dev/input/touchscreen. Then, in xorg.conf I put the input file to be that one and it works with my patches. Regarding the mouse_drv, when I was testing it on the hardy alpha, the AllowEmptyInput didn't work.

The patched version is already online (check my previous comment from 2008-05-21 - comments/8). Myself, I use the USB PM9000. What I mean about contacting, was the guys from behing the xorg-input packaging. The original Ubuntu drivers. Myself, I used some of their framework for the building the packages and then some sources from the penmount. The thing is that the PenMount guys are using the Xorg 7.2 Input framework which was quite much changed in the new Ubuntu Hardy Xorg (that is now 7.3). This is the cause of the penmount drivers not working in Hardy. Still, you can try to bug the PenMount for their driver as the 7.3 was out since last year, so what kind of support is this that they didn't come out with a driver in 6 months? You can point out my patches (from comments/8) because with this changes it gets more into the next Xinput. Of course there are other changes that I didn't go deep, and they should do other changes.

[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
Woo... I see that the problem is growing quite much. What I thought that will just be a hack, it is growing into a full driver issue. It will be nice to know what hardware is behind also, like PM6000/PM9000, USB/TTYS0 etc. I could apply the patch to anything and also make new packages. But the problem is the upstream. I think we should contact soon the PM driver developers. They seem to be working on a new driver for the new Xinput that is in the Xorg 7.3. Maybe they should check out something from this thread. I will try to involve them as well... -- no calibration tool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227183 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
removing mouse_drv.so has no effect whatsoever here. anyway, the problem is not with stability or anything else, only with the fact that the mousepointer just doesn't stick to the position where your finger is. it's not only a point of calibration, because the relative position between fingerposition and mouseposition is depending on where you are on the screen. the movement is smooth (no seemingly random jumping around), but when I make a straight movement with my finger, the mouse pointer follows a curved track. this is very hard to get straight with mathematical transformations in the code. Peter, would it be possibel to apply your patch (which made everything work here in the first place) to the latest version of the pentax drivers (the ones from the hardy package)? maybe that can help us forward? -- no calibration tool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227183 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
Hi, I know that the package was not the best. I did it in hurry just to prove that it can be done. I am not the package maintainer, and the sources of that package are from my old gutsy...and copied to hardy... Now, for debugging, I noticed that the mouse_drv.so creates problems. It might be nice for you when debugging that you just move that driver away (xorg 7.3 will load it automatically, so the easy way is to just mv /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/mouse_drv.so /root/) The rest is just to play with the options, study that source. Only thing I did was to update the source to use the new Xinput from the 7.3 (that is why it was not working in hardy but in gutsy). The calibration tool, well, that is another thing to be done, but when I get the time for it... Let me know about the issues or possible resolutions...

Thanks a lot! This makes the touchscreen work, which is good.

same problem here with the Y-axis swap. adding the following code on line 1165 (right after where the x and y values are read form the serial pins) fixed that for me: y = priv-screen_height - y; problem still is that priv_screen_height doesn't seem to be set to the right number. the transformations done on the (x, y) coordinates always give funny results, in particular the wrong scaling results. the pointer is not drawn underneath my finger, but has a displacement, relative to the position of my finger (so there's a multiplication = scaling going wrong). trying to figure out where this happens... -- no calibration tool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227183 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
hehe, I was stupid trying to fix the swapped Y-coordinate with that line of code. digging deeper into the existing code, I found out I could play around with the settings changing the PMode. for my screen, simply setting it to 2 made the X-Y interpretation correct. I'm still puzzled by the calibration though. I can't get my mouse pointer until the edges of the screen, and there's still this displacement. trying to figure it out tonight. for fmartagong: I was getting the same problem on my ubuntu system. I just unpacked the .deb, and manually put the files into place. this worked out just fine. for the calibration: I actually don't know if the calibration tools form penmount work now, but it should be (according to the code) possibel to calibrate using the ``scaled'' reporting mode and the correct MinX, MaxX, MinY and MaxY settings. good luck! -- no calibration tool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227183 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
hmm, the displacement cannot be solved by a simple linear transformation. it's very weird actually. I added some debugging lines to the driver to print out the X and Y values it reads from the serial port (testing on a PM9000 here) and when I'm following the far left border of the screen with the pen, my cursor makes a circular movement towards the inside of the screen. it's hard to explain. the same happens at the far right edge of the screen. the top and bottom line are just fine, so there seems to be something wrong with reading the X values from the port. the code for this is: x = ( priv-packet[1] 0x0FFF ); x = 7; x += ( priv-packet[2] 0x0FFF ); y = ( priv-packet[3] 0x0FFF ); y = 7; y += ( priv-packet[4] 0x0FFF ); very similar for X and Y, but X isn't giving me satisfying results. I'm also wondering why it maps with 0x0FFF, only to do a 7-bit left-shift straight afterwards. why not just map with 0x000F ?

[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
ok, sorry, my bad again (it's getting late :-)). I messed up hexadecimal and binary notation here. anyway, I'm stuck. from the code above, you can tell that packet[1] is responsible for the greatest part of the X coordinate value. when I put my pen in the top left corner, this packet contains a decimal 1. in the bottom left corner, a decimal 1 again. but somewhere in the middle, it gives me back a 2. in the top right corner, it's a 6, whereas in the bottom right corner it's a 5. how can one ever convert such results into decent pointer coordinates?

[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
If you do that, make sure that you don't have the /etc/penmount.dat file
there (move it or remove it from there). If you have the file, the
penmount drivers from the penmount.com will read it...
I have actually a debian package that works now. If you want it, let me
know. I have one compiled.
But, if you want to make one for yourself, I suggest this:
1. apt-get source xserver-xorg-input-penmount
1. Move the xf86PM.c and .h from penmount.com download (version 2.0.1) into
that src directory.
1. Apply these pacthes there:
cd xserv.../src

OK, Looked into the source of the penmount callibration tool. It is using an old method from Xinput that was changed. I will make a new package and test it with the new Xinput if it can get calibrated. So far, I managed to build a new penmount_drv.so with the sources from the penmount.com. With couple of changes in the header files and some renaming I managed to get the penmount working. The calibration was done in the xorg.conf (so pretty much manual calibration with MinX and MinY).

[Bug 227183] Re: no calibration tool
Yes, I can confirm this bug. The calibration tool doesn't work because of Xorg is now 7.3 in hardy and it used to work in 7.2. The penmount_drv.so that comes in the penmount.com [http://penmount.com/down_2_1.php] doesn't work also because of ABI incompatibility with this drive. The calibration is therefore impossible since there is no good driver for penmount. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-penmount (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- no calibration tool https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227183 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
