Touchscreen calibrationEdit
For resistive touch some calibration may be needed. Depending on your touchscreen and or the usespace environment, different calibration mechanism has to be used.
WestonEdit
If the Weston compositor is running in the background, it is necessary to remove the old udev rules, and restart the device in order to calibrate the touchscreen.
rm -f /etc/udev/rules.d/ws-calibrate.rules reboot
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 of root filesystem over NFS and SD card plugged in, make sure delete also the calibration rules stored in the SD card partition before rebooting:
rm /etc/udev/rules.d/ws-calibrate.rules rm /run/media/mmcblk0p1/ws-calibrate.rules reboot
Non-Weston based Graphic SystemEdit
If the weston compositor is not running, it is necessary to run ts_calibrate exporting the correct environment variable for the calibration file used:
export TSLIB_CALIBFILE=/usr/share/pointercal ts_calibrate
Exporting TSLIB_CALIBFILEEdit
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.
