Re: Goooooood news, touch screen works !

Udev wasn't started yet, that was the problem. I added the calibration
stuff inside /etc/init.d/opie, right before opie loads. Now it works
(with /dev/input/event1 as device), but the input handling is the same
as before. It seems the coordinates are divided by 2 somehow in
opie... So I can click on about 1/4 of the screen with some practice
:-)

It seems as if /etc/pointercal isn't saved with the calibration...

I hope Fisherss or someone with a serial cable can help me...
