Hello,
We are experiencing issues the G45 touch screen controller under Linux. It is producing severe jitter under one access which makes it impossible to use. It also sees contact permanently. From what i understand the controller has a pen detect system and from what i can tell it never sees release. If I ‘cat /dev/input/mouse0’ the output is continuous. I must also state that the jitter is almost totally on one axis.
I am using kernel build 2.6.30 with the 2.6.30-at91-exp.4.patch from the linux4sam.org site and the default build configuration from the site.
My display message is below.
Many thanks
Barry Bridges
