hi,

           I am trying to interface a 7" tft display with the imx6q sabrelite board. have configured the yocto for the gui.Can anybody suggest or provide some sample progams about how to configure when we touch a particular point in the display? The interface is I2C

• yocto version (branch)
• linux kernel version

Hi,

The ETM0700H3DH6 does not seem supported by the kernel by default. Therefore you will have to add the timings to the lcdif_modedb array:

linux-imx6/mxc_lcdif.c at boundary-imx_3.14.28_1.0.0_ga · boundarydevices/linux-imx6 · GitHub

Then you will need to modify the device tree accordingly:

linux-imx6/imx6qdl-sabrelite.dtsi at boundary-imx_3.14.28_1.0.0_ga · boundarydevices/linux-imx6 · Gi...

I assumed your kernel version was 3.14.28, Ubuntu 14.04 being the OS version which can run on any kernel version.

Finally for the touch screen controller, since this is a regular mcu, it all depends on the firmware flashed to it, you'll most likely have to create a custom driver for it.

Regards,
