Please for the love of god, I beg for help.

I have a USB eGalaxTouch Controller (USB) and I am unable to get it working correctly in Slacko.

This is the driver:
http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/drivers/touch_driver/Linux/20120719/eGTouch_v2.5.1918.L-x.tar.gz

I tried THAT and I got the error:

(E) No /etc/rc.local file found
(E) The driver archive has been removed already.


So..... I then tried this driver (X Window Only)
http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/drivers/touch_driver/Linux/20120202/eGalaxTouch-3.07.6014-32b-k26.tar.gz

This one sorta works, I do get a touch response but the Calibration Utility 4 Point test does NOT work, it just sits there and won't take a response.

I assume I need evtouch .so drivers but what ones for this version of linux?

Bitgod:

Welcome to Puppy mate.

You need to give us the exact Puppy Slacko version.
We have a mammoth collection now....OK!

QNX Neutrino RTOS V6.3 >> different to what you describe.

" Re: eGalaxTouch touchscreen clicks on second tap
Solved with ubuntu 10.04
[not sure, but it might work with earlier versions.]

Without installing the eGalaxTouch support I got everything working great with default evdev setup in ubuntu 10.04 adding these commands to fix the old problems with rotation / swapped axes. Correct tap behaviour was present out-of-the-box. "

" Are you affected by this issue?

Let’s start by saying that the eGalax Touch Screens made by EETI

uses a Touch Resistive Panel Controller

(it can be capacitive but most UMPC and Tablet PC use the

Resistive one) that can be connected using 3 different interfaces:

USB (Hardware ID: USB\VID_0EEF&PID_0001 or

USB\VID_0EEF&PID_0002), RS232 (Hardware ID: SERNUM\EGX5800,

SERNUM\EGX5900, SERNUM\EGX6000, SERNUM\EGX5901 and

SERNUM\EGX5803) and PS/2 (Hardware ID: *PNP0F13). "

It works fine in Ubuntu, so it's not a controller problem itself.

The Slacko version I have is 5.3.3
