Hello,

I've got a resistive touch screen, where the touch area 
is larger than the display area. I'd like to map "soft (keyboard) buttons" 
(e.g. ESC or num block ENTER) to the area outside of the screen -- similar to 
android's [BACK], [HOME], [MENU] buttons at the bottom.
On the linux-side, the device is handled by AD7879-i2c driver. 
Using xinput_calibrator, I can calibrate the mouse to the "display" area. 

The two main questions are: 
* is there an existing xorg module that can map such "soft buttons" to mouse 
coordinates? 
* if not, what would be the best starting point for writing code that solves my 
problem? 

I'd love to do it in X. The "soft button" calibration depends on the touch 
screen calibration 
and the touch screen calibration depends on the display/GUI, which is handled 
by X in my case.


so long..
Andy
