This section applies to derivatives as well, e.g. X.Org configuration on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6.x If you are unsure about the name of your device, check /proc/bus/input/devices once inputattach is running.

This snippet will match any device with the product name containing "Elo Serial Touchscreen" and enable the right button emulation feature in the evdev driver.
There you can add any options found in evdev(4): If you require additional options, set up an snippet.

Once this is done, the X server will pick up the device, and the default configuration will assign the evdev driver to it. If that doesn't happen on your box, you can modify the above udev rules to add it manually: On modern systems, the udev properties should be assigned automatically. Each of those triggers the respective MatchIsPointer, MatchIsTablet, etc. X requires the udev properties ID_INPUT and one of ID_INPUT_MOUSE, ID_INPUT_TABLET, etc. Once both of these are in place, a reboot will initialise inputattach, and the The matching systemd unit file looks likeĮxecStart=/usr/bin/inputattach -elo /dev/%I TAG+="systemd", we tag the device for systemd and tell it to start a servirce. If you are on system with systemd you're best off setting up a systemd service Let RUN start long-running processes, such processes get killed off. Newer udev (for some value of new, we're talking about Fedora 18 or so) won't The next step is to configure X to see the device. Once this rule is in place, inputattach will be started for us at boot time (of course the device needs to be connected at boot time too). RUN+="/sbin/inputattach -w8001 /dev/%k -daemon" $> cat /lib/udev/rules.d/lesĪCTION="add|change", SUBSYSTEM="tty|pnp", KERNEL="ttyS*", \ For example, a Wacom serial tablet may have the id WACf004 so we can use the match rule below. If a device has a pnpid, the rule can be more flexible in what ttyS* the device needs to appear on. RUN+="/sbin/inputattach -elo /dev/%k -daemon"
$> cat /lib/udev/rules.d/lesĪCTION="add|change", SUBSYSTEM="tty|pnp", KERNEL="ttyS4", \ According to Tom, the elographics device does not have a pnpid, so he configured it with a fixed device path on ttyS4: Since we don't want to run inputattach manually each time, we'll now set up udev to run this command for us. You can run evtest against it and see the event stream. Once inputattach is running, the device should be visible in /proc/bus/input/devices. Do look up the inputattach man page, depending on your device you may need a different flag. The path to the device may need to be changed on your box. First we need to load the kernel module, then call inputattach with the right options for our modprobe inputattach -elo /dev/ttyS0 -daemon
Elo touchscreen calibration invoke drivers#
Serial devices on the other hand require some manual configuration.Įlographics devices have serial kernel drivers and inputattach can be used to hook serial devices up with those kernel drivers. USB devices are automagically detected by the kernel and it will load the right drivers.

I'll show how to set up udev rules to use inputattach and then the X.Org evdev driver, thus making the device utilise a well-tested driver that has some client-stack support not found for the X.Org elographics driver. The Linux kernel however supports a large amount of serial devices too, so for this tutorial I'll explain how to use the linux kernel to talk to the device. Unfortunately, due to lack of hardware we, the upstream maintainers, can only perform cursory testing of that driver. The elographics X drivers is one of them.
Edit: - add systemd descriptionĪ bit of history first: not too long ago, the X server was talking to serial devices directly and thus had several drivers for specific input devices. Together with Tom Munro Glass and Tias Guns, we got one working properly. I don't actually have such a device but the question pops up every couple of months. This is a tutorial of sorts on how to set up an elographics serial touchscreen.
