Beagleboard touchscreen driver

Is not eGalax support already in the kernel? Hello again, finally I've decided to move to Android: Ubuntu runs too slow for my needs.

Now I'm more confused than ever in how to enable a touch screen on the BB. I've been "googling" a lot but I haven't found any useful info. I've just got one conclusion: I must to use tslib. Any advice? Does anyone know any usb touch screen tested and documented in Android?. Thanks in advance. Hello I found this aftera a lot of trial and error. I've been doing more attempts I've built Android's file system with TSlib but it still not working.

I can't see anything when I touch the screen: no event. After googling a lot, I only have read many many problems with egalax TS in linux in general and no one successful case in Android.

So, I surrender. I can't understand how is so difficult to make it work a TS in android. Can someone give a hint please? Any TS verified for beagle board in Android? In the announcement of Froyo 2.

I didn't find any. Hi all, finally I found a successful and easy way, at least to me, to use any resistive touchscreen with the BB on any OS. Drivers are not compatible with ARM architecture. USB touchscreen controller for 4,5 and 8 wires. Ideal if you buy the TFT and the touchscreen separately. HID compliant. Drivers work perfectly with ARM. Does anybody know what needs to be done to enable the touchscreen device? The kernel configuration that is shown doesn't match what is in the kernel 3.

And at the bottom of the Platform data section there is a link to the source code, that when followed takes you to a git repository for kernel 3. I really don't want to sound harsh, and I do appreciate all of the work that has gone into all of this, but the documentation doesn't seem to be keeping up with the SDK versions.

It does make it more difficult to try to build a working system. Site Search User. Products Getting Started Support. Community Projects Videos. About Us Privacy policy Terms of Use. I can do that on a separate board though. I have two displays on hand each with compatible pinouts and from what I can tell supported by the RMT1 : 4.

Hi Jeremy, Thanks for the info. Look expensive and power hungry. Any idea of the cost and power consumption? Hi Sean, No, I'm wrong. I plan to support this configuration. Let me know if you would like to review my schematics or layouts.. I'm going to order them probably tomorrow. Gerald Coley. Please keep in mind that there isn't much 3. I already have a 3.

Hi Sean, Sure, send me your schematics. BTW, I would like to see support for a 4 wire touch screen controller connected TSC which is then connected to a mcspi interface. Here I do think you will need level translators since the TSC is running at 3v3.

It is not.
