Touch input not working in Dell Latitude ST after installing android-x86

[Chuan]

Hi

I just got a Dell Latitude ST tablet and I want to install Android on
it because Window 7 is not really finger friendly for a tablet.

I have already tried a few of the downloadable builds range from
Android 2.2 to Android 4.0 (including eeepc, tegav2, asus_laptop and
many more), However, none of these builds support touch input for this
device.

Is it due to a missing driver? Will android-x86 team consider to add
Dell Latitude ST to the list of official support devices in the
future?

Any comments or suggestions are appreciated

[Chuan]

I tried Android 1.6, and surprisingly there is a visual feedback when
pressing on the screen, which the notification bar is about to be
pulled-down. However, the feedback is the same no matter where the
touch point is. I can also find the touchscreen info in the /proc/bus/
input/devices, the vendor is N-trig.

I found in the android-x86 group that the HP slate users also have
similar issue, and HP slate's touchscreen is from the same vendor. I
am wondering whether N-trig driver (or equivalent drivers) is included
in Android 1.6, and not included in other distributions.

[Chuan]

Just realized that the touchscreen is functioning with stylus after
installing the Android 1.6 build.

Can I extract the touchscreen driver from Android 1.6 and port it to
other Android builds?

[Chih-Wei Huang]

You just need to create a customized build with
N-trig driver enabled.

Thanks for the prompt reply, cannot wait to try but now still setting
up the build environment.

Do you mind another question? The graphic acceleration and wifi are
also not available, is it also because of the driver enablement?

Thanks a lot and Merry Christmas.

Finally get the touch screen working in Dell Latitude ST with
Gingerbread!!

As advised by Chih-Wei, a custom build is needed, so I created a new
target, add put these two lines in the customized defconfig
CONFIG_HID_MULTITOUCH=y
CONFIG_HID_NTRIG=y

After a long build time, I install the generated iso to the tablet,
and the touchscreen is now working !!!

Next thing to do is to enable hardware acceleration, wifi and get
camera working!

I would like to share my target if anyone is interested.

[Coda2010]

I am absolutely interested, though my goal is a dual-boot scenario,
your efforts will undoubtedly be a great help in that process.

Regards,

Stuart

[Chuan]

Hi Stuart

I have already sent you the target to your email address.

[ursenj]

I am interested as well. I have been very disappointed with this
device with windows on it and it would make an awesome android
tablet.

Thanks,..

[Chuan]

hi, the target has been sent to you.

[Coda2010]

Much Appreciated!

[Ruffles]

If I could get your target if you could send it to me. Thanks in
advance.

[Chuan]

Hi, just sent you the target.

Happy building :)

[u...@itxtra.de]

Hi Chuan,

can you send me the target as well.

[Nathan]

I'd love the target - thanks!

[Chuan]

Hi

I have uploaded the target to dropbox, you can download from here.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49735879/peju.zip

[ThunderWolf]

Does this target work with any version of Android or just
Gingerbread? Also, any success in getting the Wifi and camera
working?

Thanks

Hi Chuan,
i don't own a Dell Latitude but a Fujitsu Q550. It also uses a
1280x800 Screen with a N-Trig Duosense Digitizer, GMA 600 etc.

This is the very first android x86 which endables the touchscreen for
me. Great work!!

Would it be possible for you, to also add the Q550 to your iso?

I was able to build Honeycomb with the NTrig enabled (using
menuconfig), with similar success on the Fujitsu Q550 (it was a simple
matter assuming you can get the build environment and the sources
working - the documentation on android-x86.org was easy to follow and
it worked right away on 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10).

I tried enabling the Ralink 3572 driver for the wifi (also using
menuconfig to get all the dependencies in order), and it doesn't work:
the driver is listed as Experimental and is not yet supposed to work.
I know there is a working linux driver for the Ralink on the Ralink
website, but it is beyond my skills to incorporate it into Android.
Maybe someone with more knowledge could manage it.

I don't think I could quite figure out where to enable the video
drivers (it just runs at low resolution out of the box).

I haven't tried the camera at all (the real killer is the wifi since
there would be no way to get any apps without it)

Anyone have any luck on the wifi and video fronts?

Any Success in getting a image that fully supports latitude st. Have
been dying to dump windows on mine and yet to find a working
distribution. Win7 performs horribly and my tab is collecting dust:-(

Closest I have gotten is your provided image that get screen
functional, but no go on wifi, bluetooth, etc.

Cheers,

[Insignificant88]

Should'nt we all work together and Build a version for both the Q550
and the Dell ST?
They aren't so different.

Does ICS also work? I tested an x86 iso, but that didn't work.

I've also compiled a version with the n-trig driver of gingerbread
which works fine.

But we really need Screenresolution, WiFi, UMTS, Brightness.

Maybe we should try to get ICS to work, it has the 3.0 kernel, which
brings more driver compatibility with it.

[jefong]

thanks for your sharing , do you have any latest building rom？

Hi to everyone,
I'm a newbie but I would like to build my own ICS iso image for my Dell Latitude ST; is possible to make a brief how to about the main steps to follow?

Till now I have:

a) repo init -u http://git.android-x86.org/manifest -b ics-x86
b) repo sync
c) make iso_img TARGET_PRODUCT=eeepc

the iso image was create I tested into virtualbox with success, I tried this image into my Dell Latitude st but without ntrig support is was unusable.

I downloaded the zip file linked from Mr. Chuan, I have unzipped it into /android/system/dell/peju and I have built with:

make iso_img TARGET_PRODUCT=peju

it ran for hours and finally the iso image was created; I test on my Dell St but nothing, after the first words saying "detecting android-x86 .. found at /dev/.." only black screen. (the iso works correctly on Virtualbox)

What is wrong?
Thanks

regards

[Vinc74]

If I use this iso http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?kad65s158t3vuzq, touch is working, unfortunately wifi and audio no.

There is someone who made something better?

thanks

Hi,
I tested the gen_x86 version from here: http://www.tabletsx86.org/android-x86-builds.htm
android-x86-4.0-eeepc-20120721.iso    => no touch input and no wifi
android-x86-4.0-gen_x86-20120726.iso   => black screen

I saw in moonman's site http://android-x86.moonman.dk/
I tested eeepc version (08/21/2012) but no success

any idea ?

Thanks

For GMA600 which use the proprietary PowerVR chip,
it's still a big pain of us.

I think we should try to ask support from
Imagination Technologies, the vendor of PowerVR.
( http://www.imgtec.com )

What we need are:

1. PowerVR driver patch for Linux kernel 3.x.
2. PowerVR x86 binary libraries for Android 4.0.

For item 1, the patch is covered by GPL so
it should be open sourced. For item 2,
Imagination Technologies has co-worked with Google
to release PowerVR binary libraries for several
arm platform (see
http://code.google.com/intl/en/android/nexus/drivers.html )
So it's reasonable to ask them to do the same for x86 chip
like atom z5xx and z6xx.

Anyone can help to convince Imagination Technologies?

Hello,
I apologize for my English I am French and my delay in this application.
I have a Dell Latitude ST I will wish to Android 4.

I try the screen resolution creates problems because the touchpad is not consistent (the keys are very offset from one another when I click)


But it seems that the Android ISO file for Dell Latitude ST is no longer available on Droopbox.
Can you pass the ISO please?

Thank you very much for your help
Nadege

[Usman Latif]
