Guest lomodohido Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 hallo, the touchscreen is typeFaytech 0800 SI 800x600 phisical resolution 8 inch. I have installed the actual version evtouch from the Mandrive homepage. Cunrently installed is Mandriva 2009 ONE. In hardware information I can see the touchscreen: Identifikation Hersteller: ‎D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd Beschreibung: ‎eGalax TouchScreen Medienklasse: ‎Human Interface Device|No Subclass|None Verbindung Bus: ‎USB Bus PCI #: ‎2 PCI-Gerät #: ‎8 Hersteller ID: ‎0x0eef Geräte-ID: ‎0x0001 Unterhersteller-ID: ‎0x0000 Geräte-Unter-ID: ‎0x0000 Sonstiges Modul: ‎touchkitusb The display and mouse bahave normal if a mouse is connected. As soon as I replace the mouse at the USB connector with the Touchscreen no more mouse movement or mouse actions take place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Is the Modul: ‎touchkitusb loaded at boot. You can check this by doing lsub as a root in the console and look if you see ‎touchkitusb somewhere in the list. If not put a line called ‎touchkitusb in /etc/modprobe.preload (as root) and reboot.
