elo touchscreen driver

[Sea]

Hi,
I have an elo touchscreen connect with the PC via a RS232 port, but
it doesn't work under androidx86 and I decide to write a driver for
it. How many aspects shoud I concern? any hints?
also, I have download linux driver from elo official website, but it
just deal with the IO through RS232 line, if I have got the x, y
positions from the RS232 port, how can I notify the kernel and finally
the touch event reach the App's GUI?

You should implement the touch event via
Linux input interface ( /sys/class/input/eventX ).
Then android will auto detect and use it.
You may also need to use ts_calibrate to
do the calibration.

Hi, A Wei

Thanks for your suggestions.
I have found an ELO touchscreen driver under kernel/drivers/input/touchscreen/.
How can I enable this driver and compile it into the kernel.

read the wiki about how to change the kernel configuration and load
the driver in the auto-boot script (in the newinstaller directory). I
guess we have to wrong some documents about how to load a new driver
during boot up.
