US15W card Driver install problem

[Daniel]

Yes, my java application runs ok with Xfbdev!

But touchDriver install.sh needs X!
I think, install stript need to be converted (or i have to do manual copy, before make an extension).
Have a look to it if you want : http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/eGalaxTouchDriver/linuxDriver.htm
==> depending of X version, a driver is selected : what is X version for Xfbdev ? 1.7 ?

How is managed mouse ? mousse_drv ... ?


Actually, the standalone flashplayer 10.02 under Xfbdev ... with flash10.tcz. Not without! (missing libgtk-x11-2.so...)
With X, the 10.02 flashplayer is launched with flash10.tcz installed, but block screen !!!

The TCL firefox was running (launchin application.swf), but i need to put my firefox in a directory, with 10.02
flash plugins.

Here is some problems i have to resolve before choosing TCL


Or succed to configure X with intel drivers ...

Thanks for all
Daniel.

Did you load input-tablet-touchscreen-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz and verify that module 'usbtouchscreen' is loaded?

[Daniel]

no

because of my ubuntu experiences ... and incomptibility problems with eGalax!
and i didn't know this .tcz

but that is the first thing i will try on monday!
perhaps eeti - eGalax are included ... or compatible in that package

thanks
Daniel

The poulsbo chip really is horrible. Looks rather good for Intel when the binary driver even hangs your machine.

Since you got good performance in Xfbdev, you can just use Xorg with its fbdev module instead of Intel's binary drivers.
Use the vga=xxx bootcode, and select fbdev as the driver in xorg.conf. This way you can use your egalax driver too.

[Daniel]

i will try that too!

performances are pretty good ... but not as good as ubuntu 8.04 with iegd driver.

i've got others problems with ubuntu on this machine.

between performances and problems resolution, a choice will be done ... if i can't have performances as good as with ubuntu.

I've installed input-tablet-touchscreen-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz with Xvesa.

How can i calibrate ?
i will have a look to that problem!

Thanks
Daniel.

[Daniel]

I don't find any information to calibrate my usbtouchscreen after installing input-tablet-touchscreen-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz).

I will try now with Xfbdev ...

I know how to configure with X (by saving files after driver install with eGalax setup.sh).

Daniel.

PS: Xvesa could replace Xfbdev if i have touchscreen, but with my configuration, performances are better with Xfbdev.
I will try X with fbdev param (test performances ... and eeti touchscreen driver if necessary).

[curaga]

You can only use the calibration data with Xorg.

[Daniel]

That means i can't have touchscreen with Xvesa and Xfbvdev ?

D.

[curaga]

Yes, but uncalibrated, I believe. Not sure though.

[Daniel]

With input-tablet-touchscreen-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz i thought it was possible ... for Xvesa or Xfbdev

What i know is that the touchscreen is managed like a mouse ... but only click is used (where the mouse pointer is).

I spoke about eGalax driver on a TCL thread : driver install-configuration. http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=8528.15
But X is needed!

Now, my solution is : X
- with intel US15W drivers
- with fbdev configuration.

Actually, i've got problems with intel driver!
I don't know what i have to do after all my tests

I'm preparing fbdev configuration tests.

Xfbdev is better than Xvesa (for my configuration).
But the actual ubuntu 8.04 with intel iegd driver is better than Xfbdev! (my test application tell 2 times better).
I was expecting kernel 2.6.33 is better than 2.6.24 ...
Missing "only" intel drivers usage to know!

Daniel.

[Daniel]

X with fbdev configuration (and eGalax touch configured)

Performances are not here

My application test is a carrousel rotation of 6 pictures. (done in flash, with ip java communication : huge graphical test part).

With ubuntu 8.04 (iegd intel driver) : less than 2s.
With Xfbdev : around 3.15s
With Xvesa : around 3.6s
With X - fbdev : more than 4s

Missing X with emgd intel driver (normally better than iegd driver).

Daniel.

[Daniel]

I can send one machine (if 24V alim disposable for panel) ... if somebody wants to work on the intel driver integration ...

PS : i am in France (Valence 26000).

It's a binary driver, nobody but Intel can do anything about it not working.
