Hi, List I just setup a Xfbdev server on an embedded system which based on framebuffer (S3C2416 SoC). Then I met my first problems in staring Xfbdev. Hope people here can give me some help.
1. What's the right way to start Xfbdev with touchscreen as input? My touch screen is integrated into Linux input subsystem and appears as /dev/input/event0. I tried many ways to pass arguments to Xfbdev, but all failed with error messages. My ways are: "-mouse evdev,,device=/dev/input/event0", and "-mouse tslib,,device=/dev/input/event0". Finally, I found one way works but looks not decent at all, that is: make a symbol link '/dev/input/touchscreen0' to /dev/input/event0, then pass "-mouse tslib" to Xfbdev. From the outputed warning messages, I see that Xfbdev finally falled back to use a default name "/dev/input/touchscreen0". Although it works, but I believe this is not the right way to do it. Googled on the net, but helps on Xfbdev command line is not so much helpful. 2. All X applications has no title bar and menu bars. After started Xfbdev, I can lanuch some X applications, such as xclock and gtk-demo. All of these applicion have no title bar and menu bars on the screen. Does it mean I have to start a window manager application previously? But a window manager need another piece of memory, I think may not needed for my embedded single-gui environment. Anyway, I did tried a window manager, matchbox. But this time, after started matchbox, my applications (xclock, gtk-demo) even cannot show up on the screen. What's wrong with them? Thanks in advance. -- I can't go back to yesterday - because I was a different person then _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
