Touchscreen?
Florin
Congratulation for yours work.
I compiled the kernel from the source, how you say in wiki page, with
rootfs, after chroot, from ubuntu jaunty (with lxde and gdm) created
with rootstock like in this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch
.
After boot, the bluetouth stay continuously activated and I can not
make the touchscreen to work (I installed the evtouch driver)
How can I make the touchscreen to work?
What distribution you utilise? Debian?
Sorry for my english, I am from Romania.

sounds interesting. Is the 'desktop' useable with the amount of memory the Loox has?

and a good tutorial with everything you need to install a Debian distribution,
but use a old kernel and evtouch driver from this site can not be load in X
because is compiled with a old glibc.
I installed the xserver-xorg-input-evtouch this driver use device in
/dev/input/event[x]
I attach log with dmesg and xorg (xorg.conf is not not edited because I have
hal).
I think is necessary to uninstall the synaptics driver and to stop the hal
daemon and then to edit the xorg.conf? Any ideea?

it seems like X.org misrecognizes the touchscreen as Synaptics.
It's just a hint since I haven't been active in this project for some time,
but maybe try disabling the Synaptics driver in X.org.

Hello Florin!
Well, I did some kind of modification of the evtouch driver some time ago which
kinda worked, however I am pretty sure that with newer X versions it doesnt ):
Some time ago I got an request to bring it uptodate, however, at that time
there was no (official *g*) Loox development anymore so it went on the
backburner...
Right now I simply don't have the time for looking into it (I still don't even
have a working rootfs again, though my old ones are archived on disk I think)
since I am on job hunt
I hope to get some spare time soon (besides applications, and the 4 times a
week 3h mandatory sit in, enforced by the community job center) and my girl
friend (:

PS: it DID work, with the old rootfs and following the documentation on
http://postnuklear.de/linuxloox/linuxloox.html (not that it will help u right
now *g*)

Linux on my Loox720.
Now I try to make a new rootfs with Gentoo distribution (because I like this
distribution). I put XFCE4 for WM, and I use LINGUAS="ro ru it fr en"
I have a few packages to end compile the XFCE.
I wish to try this driver http://www.plop.at/en/touchscreen.html
Does anyone know if I could to boot from a CF (4GB) card, because I haven't a
SD card with 4GB and the SDHC is not visibil in ppc 2003.
