Running xcalibrate

Hi Phil,

Asking the GPE expert.

I'm trying to run xcalibrate and see whether the touchscreen driver
works as expected, and achieves a satisfactory accuracy.

As far as I understood, GPE's calibration uses "xcalibrate", which
output is stored in /etc/xcalibrate.conf.

The problem is I can't run xcalibrate because it uses the obsolete
/proc/hal/model and aborts without it.

How could I recompile xcalibrate then? Are there any cross compiling
instructions anywhere? In particular, I'd like to know where to pick up
the includes and binary libraries of the X server that we're using. Do I
need to cross compile the Xserver first?

If you or someone else can easily fix this issue and build another
package, be my guest! :-)

    Cheers,

    Michael.
