Xorg and touchscreen
asclepix:
Hello
I need to use a touchscreen with Tiny Core Linux 2.11.5
On my machine Xvesa is good, but "touch" mouse has X and Y axis inverted.
I try to load usbtouchscreen kernel module with swap_xy=1, but with no results.
So I think I need Xorg and evtouch_drv.so (using it I was able to use touchscreen under Ubuntu 8.04).
I've downloaded Xorg-7.4 and its deps. I log out to prompt and I install Xorg using tce-load -i Xorg-7.4.
When I start X using Xorg I obtain only a black screen, with no mouse and I can do nothing else.
If I try with "sudo Xorg -configure" and than "sudo Xorg -config corg.conf.new", but I have the same result.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance

There a significant chance that you'll have to manually make a touch screen section in xorg.conf
As for the other problems, what does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say? Maybe you could google on "xorg.conf" and your graphics chipset for pointers.

Yes, I need to modify xorg.conf, but I want to see Xorg on before modify xorg.conf.
How can I get /var/log/Xorg.0.log if I can't remove the black screen? I've tried to insert DontZap option in xorg.conf.new, but Ctrl-Alt-Backspace doesn't work

You can symlink /var/log to somewhere permanent like a hd or usb stick

It seems a good idea, but on the next boot I have:
ls -l
ls: ./Xorg.0.log: Stale NFS file handle
ls: ./Xorg.0.log.old: Stale NFS file handle
total 0
What does it mean?? I've used /mnt/hda1/log and I do a "sudo chmod a+w /mnt/hda1/log"
