Embedded Linux Multi-touch driver with QT, TSLIB

[Ramtry]

Hi,

I am trying to interface capacitive touch screen to our product.The driver for the capacitive touch screen controller (GT927) attached for your reference. Cross compiled the driver and insmod in to the kernel successfully. Getting the corresponding co-ordinate in debug terminal window whenever touched the capacitive screen as follows

Now i am facing problem of interfacing the driver in to multitouch protocol of the kernel. I cannot calibrate the touch screen using ts_calibrate. I tried by replacing all the occurrences of ABS_X / Y with ABS_MT_POSITION_X / Y in tslib (plugin/input-raw.c) but it's showing segment fault. How can i implement multi touch protocol for touch screen driver? I followed this link to interface multitouch with QT

http://www.ptrackapp.com/apclassys-notes/embedded-linux-multitouch/

But i can't able to calibrate (ts_calibrate) the touch screen, it gives the "Segment fault"

Please kindly give some suggestion to solve this problem.

Thanks,

Hi Ram,

I should use a goodix gt9xx chip, but I haven't found any drivers yet. You said you attached it for reference, but I cannot find it.

Where did you find yours?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Ieio,

Are you using gt9xx chip ?? Have you found drivers ?

I Solved the problem by disabling the tslib in ltib package.

thanks.
