Debian Hardware :: Getting Touchscreen To Work (fujitsu Fmv-680mc4)
Sep 2, 2010
recently i got a very old laptop fujitsu fmv-680mc4 with celeron 800Mhz cpu and 256m ram.so i throwed away the hell-slow xubuntu 10.04 and put debian lenny on that machine.
everything worked smoothly(even the gnome environment!but why xubuntu with xfce always suck my cpu to its fullest?),only touchscreen did not.I've also got a copy of windows xp running on it,and touchscreen worked fine there.It's really hard to find a clue about the hardware specification(outdated,maybe deleted on their official website),I even don't know the model of the touchscreen.The only information i know is that it has a PS/2 interface and comes with an identifier 'PNP0F13' (as M$ windows hardware manager says). i remember stock 2.6 kernel do support some lifebook touchscreens,with modules compiled into kernel.But when i run cat /dev/psaux and touch on screen nothing happened(when i move the trackpad it did output some binary codes),and i move on "cat" the whole /dev/input folder but no luck still. Then i tried to modprobe some touchscreen modules in,but failed,nothing comes out from dmesg.
the question is: is there a way to get it to work(seeing binary code flow out of my console is also considered as "working")?does it need some "initialize magic code" to be brought into ready state?

I am trying to use this old notebook as a poor man's netbook. I installed Slackware 13 on it and find that the touchscreen uses the Xorg evdev driver. It starts up with both acceleration and incorrect calibration. Xinput can be used to successfully remove the acceleration. However, using xinput to set the calibration does nothing to the behavior, although the settings do seem to get registered.
After bringing up X:
fujitsu:/home/mradtke xinput list 2
"LBPS/2 Fujitsu Lifebook TouchScreen" id=2 [XExtensionPointer]
Type is TOUCHPAD
Num_buttons is 5
[Code].....
In addition to the calibration not working, no button events seem to be generated or reported by xinput.
I did a lot of searching for a solution and see that many people use evtouch [URL] for their Lifebooks. However, none of the binaries seem to work with the Xorg build that Slackware uses (ABI version mismatch) and I have no idea of how to fix that. I am open to recompiling Xorg to use evtouch, installing the Xorg sources that were used in building Slackware 13. They don't seem to be part of the distribution.

Ever since I upgraded, the touchscreen on my Fujitsu Lifebook P1610 no longer works. On Karmic, it worked out of the box without installing any extra packages.
I see xserver-xorg-input-fpit in Synaptic Package Manager but it conflicts with netbook remix packages for some reason so I haven't tried installing it.
I didn't see anything in dmesg about the touchscreen but there are Xorg errors:
Code:
...
(II) config/udev: Adding input device Serial Wacom Tablet (/dev/ttyS0)
(**) Serial Wacom Tablet: Applying InputClass "Wacom serial class"
(II) LoadModule: "wacom"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wacom_drv.so
(II) Module wacom: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[Code]....
I'm not sure if it's supposed to be recognized as a wacom tablet or what, and I'm also not sure how it used to be configured when it worked in Karmic.

I am hoping to be able to get an old serial-touchscreen to work with a usb/serial adapter. I had this touchscreen working some years ago on different hardware. I would like to hook it to the machine I am setting up as a multimedia host with mythtv among other things.
Following the instructions I left behind when I got this to work way back when does not work. See [URL] ....
This info is a work around to get the xserver to see the touchscreen. [URL] ....
I do know that the touchscreen works as I am able to get garbage on the screen as in the first part of my howto. But I have not had any success getting xorg to see it. I wish I had posted a copy of the xorg.conf at the time, but......
There is an issue with the current xserver in testing that I am hoping the next update (in unstable) will fix when it gets pushed to testing. That is that Code: Select all# X -configure fails with a segfault. So I am not able to generate the xorg.conf needed to get it to work. I was going to post a bugreport, that is when I found out there is an update in unstable, so I am waiting for it to get pushed at the moment.
Anyway I am hoping that I can link /dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/tty0 and get it to work. I would like some kind of guess as to my chances of success before I go to all the work of getting the monitor hooked to the host.

I have a touchscreen (DELL model)which is working with windows xp (with windows drivers for touchscreen installed). but i want to use mandriva 2008 on the touchscreen, which requires drivers of mandriva 2008 only. I have been trying very hard but in vain.

I am trying to get my 3M touchscreen to work in Ubuntu. Presently, I have the usbtouchscreen module loaded -- which results in touches being recognized, but the y-axis is backwards (ie: if I press at the top, it shows up at the bottom). Given that hal is depreciated, the only place I could note for configuration options the xorg.conf.d directory. But, I'm unsure what needs to be added there.
Additionally, I am confused over usbtouchscreen vs evdev vs evtouch -- which is supposed to be used at this point?
Ok, some system info:
I am running Ubuntu 10.04

I tend to stay on for long time. My machine is a Fujitsu T4310 tablet. I have got all tablet features previously working properly when I was on Isadora Mint. After installing LMDE to my surprise basic features of the tablet simply worked out of the box but I'm missing a few important features like multitouch, screen rotate and buttons in tablet mode.
As far as my experience with Isadora, it needed a driver called "fjbtndrv", but I couldn't find it in the repos, moreover, I think it might need some tweeks to get it behaving properly. I found some refferences but it refers to other ubuntu based distros, which I can't use of course.
p.s. prefere a solution other than compiling it myself, it looks scary and has lots of dependencies.

I just switched from FC10 to FC12, and much to my dismay, the touchscreen no longer works. I wasn't able to find a solution on the web, hopefully some gentle soul will answer my problem. The hardware is recognised correctly, because
Code:
hexdump /dev/hidraw0
gives an output when I over the stylus over the screen.
Note: I used hexdump because I couldn't find the wacdump utility anymore. Has it disappeared?
I played with HAL rules so that the appropriate wacom driver is loaded for the tablet. I modified /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-synaptics.fdi, taken from /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/10-synaptics.fdi, as follow (to avoid trying to load Synaptics driver for the touchpad feature of the tablet):
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">

I try to install Debian Squeeze on that tablet PC. Lenny was running fine (even reinstall of Lenny works). The installation seems to run fine, too. The problem shows up after the first reboot of the system. After the first messages are displayed, the screen gets black and develops some vertical white lines that keep getting larger until they fill the complete screen. When I configure the BIOS for a second monitor, the external monitor works, I can log in. But this is at best a diagnosis option, not a solution. Ubuntu shows the same symptoms, btw. Here is the output of lspci:

I'm posting from my brand new out of the box HP Pavilion dv6, great machine, but I'm having some hardware issues.My touchscreen isn't working.As well, my touchpad mouse isn't functioning correctly. The left/right click buttons are treated as part of the touch pad, which makes clicking things very difficult. As well, it doesn't appear to have a right click function at all

I've just bought a new notebook and wanted to install Debian Wheezy. I bought an ASUS N550JV and since I installed Debian I've had a really bad time with Windows, UEFI boot loaders, GPT discs, touchscreens, nvidia, bumblebee, bluetooth and so on. After a few days, I've been able to boot Windows and Debian, however I'm quite unhappy with how Debian is handling the hardware.
Right now, my worst concern is the touchscreen. I don't really care whether it works or not but it is really messing with the OS. I installed Debian stable which comes with the 3.2.57 kernel. The touchscreen didn't work at all and I didn't really care until I run dmesg. Each 2 seconds I get spammed with the following text added to the dmesg output:
Code: Select all[ 31.901696] xhci_queue_intr_tx: 74 callbacks suppressed
[ 33.826890] usb 1-10: USB disconnect, device number 12

I've got a problem with touchscreen (NNK Switches 5.7" model: FT-CU04B). It is not supported under Linux, but I managed to get it working with usbtouchscreen module, after some modifications of course. It gets recognized by system now, it is possible to calibrate it correctly through xinput_calibrator but it isn't possible to "left click with it". I know that it's weird so I want to make myself clear - touchscreen recognizes touch - when touching button for example, it reacts with "going down" but when I'm releasing button, it "goes up" again, without action. I've tried mapping left mouse button with xinput set-button map 1 0 0 0 0 0, but without success, buttons remain "unclickable".

I have a Fujitsu V5505 the hard drive is totally fried & I lost everything. I bought a HDD Dock to check it with same results FRIED.I plan on buying a new hdd & installing ubutan as the OS.I have done some googling & as with everything the more I read the more confused I become. I have my HDD Dock with PC Clone software so I can format the new hdd & load any stuff on to the new hdd before installing it back in to the laptop.
Things I am unclear on.1, New hdd. will it need formatting if so what format.2, Loads of stuff about drivers (mine field!) how what were.3 Can I install ubuntu directly on to the new hdd.Hope you all get the picture so to recap (brand new install no saved files or folders.)

I have just installed ubuntu 11.04 on an "old" Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Laptop. This computer does not have an internal Wi-Fi adapter but got Connect2Air WLAN E-5400 USB adapter that was working perfectly on the windows partition.After the ubuntu installation, p54usb was complaining about not founding isl3887usb driver in dmesg. I followed instructions found on launchpadI installed the ubuntu-firmware-nonfree package from synaptic and rebooted the laptop.dmesg showed that the card is detected and loaded correctly as a Wi-Fi adapter and in the network manager I can see broadcasted wireless networks.I tried to connect to both an open (unprotected) and a WPA network without any success.

I am interested in buying a small portable scanner since I'll often use it on the go and the one I'm looking at is the Fujitsu Snapscan 300. There is a M version, the 300M that's said to work with Macs.
My situation is I have a Mac at home and want to be able to use it with that so may have to get the 300M but also on the go I use a laptop that uses Mandriva Linux.
My question: Will the 300, hopefully the Snapscan 300M work with Linux? I want to make sure it will recognize the scanner. Also, assuming it works what programs would I use to scan? I want to be able to scan into both jpgs and pdf's.

I recently upgraded the hard drive on my Fujitsu N3530 notebook to WD Scorpio Blue 500 MB, and created a dual-boot configuration with WinXP, installing 32-bit Slackware 13.1 from DVD. Grub 0.97 bootloader is installed on superblock of root partition. Running KDE. Using the generic kernel with appropriate initrd for ext4 filesystem on root partition.
Everything runs fine so far, except the computer won't power off the computer. I've tried using the KDE shutdown, and shutting down from command line - same result. Also same result if I use the huge kernel or the generic kernel.
The last message I see is:
Remounting root filesystem read-only.
/dev/sda3 on / type ext4 (ro)
Power down.
... and then the shutdown process stalls and I have to turn off the computer by pressing and holding the power button.
This is the first time I've installed any Linux OS on this notebook. I have Slackware 13.0 running fine on a Thinkpad T61 with no poweroff issue.
From reading various posts, this looks to be related to ACPI. I tried adding "acpi=force" to the kernel line in menu.lst, but it made no difference.
/var/log/messages shows "acpid exiting" and then "exiting on signal 15" as last entries during shutdown.s.

installed Opensuse 11.4 onto the Fujitsu Amilo L7320GW laptop, and all works well except for the headphone jack. Sound works from the laptop speakers and when the headphones are plugged in the sound is muted from the main speakers, but no sound via the headphones.I've looked at other threads within the forum, and it appears that editing the 50-sound.conf file has helped other people, however the soundcard is a Realtek ALC655 (chipset VIA VT82xx), and l cannot see a listing for the ALC655 within the alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txtListed below is the information requested:-[URL]

I have an eGalax touchscreen which I installed using the xserver-xorg-input-evtouch package. Now touching the screen makes the mouse pointer move in all sorts of random directions.
What I want, of course, is for the mouse pointer to move to the point where I touched the screen. Typically this is called 'calibration'. Maybe there's a program to run or something, but I can't find it. how do I calibrate my touch screen?
I'm running Jaunty 9.04 so there is no 'System -> Administration -> Calibrate Touchscreen' program.

You have probably seen the TV shows and films with the law enforcement agency, or the team at "Leverage" have a large screen with other side screens.
I don't have a holographic display, or even a 60" touchscreen, but I do have a TV, and a couple of computers running 10.10 and 11.04.
What I would like to do, using a mouse instead of a touchscreen, is "push" photos, videos, or dossiers on enemy agents to another screen or phone.
I would imagine it to be something along the lines of hot zones on the desktop, so that if I flick an item to, say, the right of the screen, it will leave my desktop and pop up on the desktop of the (networked, but separate and different) computer to my right, and if I drag / flick an item to the top centre it will Bluetooth it to my phone (which I'll set up to automatically accept any files from "my.desktop.homelan".
I had something a little similar with, I think, Compiz, in that if I flicked an item to the right it would dump it onto virtual desktop 2 (of four horizontal ones).
What search terms would I use in Google or Ubuntu Help to get me started? I can compile, but I'd rather not, as I'm not very good at it, and I can edit .cfg files as long as there are plain English descriptors ("Enable_Feature_Foo=1" "Fave_Place=/home/Me/fave/" etc).

The problem is the touchscreen is acting like a mouse. The cursor doesn't go to where I touch, it just moves around just like a normal mouse.
This Xorg.0.log shows this about the TouchScreen
Code:
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "USB Touchscreen 595a:0001" (type: TOUCHPAD)
(**) USB Touchscreen 595a:0001: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1
(**) USB Touchscreen 595a:0001: (accel) filter chain progression: 2.00
(**) USB Touchscreen 595a:0001: (accel) filter stage 0: 20.00 ms
[Code]....
the lsmod output tells me that the usbtouchscreen isnt being used by anything.

How to get a older crt touchscreen working. I need it to work for a handicapped child. When I check the device it seems slackware detects it as a mac emulation mouse and I installed egalaxy drivers. It seems something is right, when I touch the screen the cursor goes to the right top corner and moves a bit when touching the screen.
