If the weston compositor is not running, it is necessary to run:
 
<pre>
 
  export TSLIB_CALIBFILE=/usr/share/pointercal
 
  ts_calibrate
 
</pre>
 
 
 
==== Exporting TSLIB_CALIBFILE ====
 
The environment variable TSLIB_CALIBFILE is used by the tslib package to indicate the location of the pointercal file. The default value for TSLIB_CALIBFILE is /etc/pointercal. If you are writing a program that uses tslib you should make sure that you export TSLIB_CALIBFILE to point to the location of your pointercal file (as indicated in the previous section), or that you place a copy of the pointercal file at the default /etc/pointercal location.

At the next restart the weston-calibrator tool should automatically show up. Tap on the red cross appearing on the screen to calibrate the touch panel.

Note: In the case that the filesystem is mounted via NFS and that an additional sdcard is plugged in, make sure delete also the calibration rules stored in the sdcard partition before rebooting.

 rm /etc/udev/rules.d/ws-calibrate.rules
 rm /run/media/mmcblk0p1/ws-calibrate.rules
