Some good news from my side here: we have successfully deployed six PM9000 (RS232) based touchscreens in a production environment, with the latest (beta) Ubuntu 8.04 driver and calibration tool provided by Penmount themselves. Working just fine, both the driver as the calibration tool inside a ful

sometimes contacting the vendor *does* help, apparently. :-) http://penmount.com/Download/Driver/PenMount/PenMount%20Ubuntu%208.04%20Driver%20beta2%2020080526.zip this drivers works perfectly for me (PM9000 board with internal RS232 connection). works together with intel video driver, at a 1024x7

hmm, I don't see any difference between the files you have in your PPA for gutsy and for hardy. diff also doesn't see any difference. :-) I'll test them nevertheless... the support from PenMount indeed is worthless. just look at their website. if there would have been an Internet in the sixties, t

We are testing on a PM9000, connected to TTYS3 on our system. I agree the problem lies upstream here. I tried to get them involved as well through the official support line of the company where we bought our screens (they claim they support Linux after all), but no luck until now. Could you pleas

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 fingerpositi

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 de

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 p

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 calibra

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 transformati
