[22:15] <munroe> I'm having a bit of trouble configuring mid to work. I've got an IDOT ce260, which is pretty much the same as an everex cloudbook ce260
[22:15] <munroe> The touchscreen doesn't work, and the resolution isn't right.
[22:22] <munroe> I'm thinking about just wiping this partition, and using windows.
[22:38] <persia> munroe, What resolution is the ce260?  Also, what video hardware?
[23:08] <munroe> 800x600, the video hardware is onboard. It's a via cx-7 chipset I believe for the board
[23:10] <persia> OK.  How isn't the resolution right?
[23:12] <munroe> Half the icons were off the screen. The touchscreen is the biggest part though, I really need that to work
[23:12] <munroe> based on screenshots anyway
[23:12] <persia> Which touchscreen does that use?
[23:12] <persia> Also, which screenshot were you referencing?
[23:20] <munroe> Sorry about that, I can't quite figure out what touchscreen it is. The configure touch screen program under accessories claims evtouch doesn't support my touchscreen
[23:21] <munroe> I poked through the lshal output, but I couldn't figure out which one was my touchscreen
[23:22] <persia> You might try installing the microtouch, mutouch, or tslib drivers.r
[23:22] <munroe> I'll give that a whirl, thanks.
[23:22] <munroe> I'll let you know.
[23:23] <munroe> I picked up this little netbook yesterday. It's pretty slick, has a voip phone built in
[23:23] <persia> The ideacom touchscreen also seems fairly popular, but its a closed-source driver.  Celtiore wrote up some instructions (http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?p=14163), but I'm not sure if they work with intrepid.
[23:25] <munroe> 300 Canadian down from 500
[23:44] <munroe> Are there any calibration tools outside of the calibrate_touchscreen? It's not working for me. It's still complaining about the evtouch
[23:47] <persia> calibrate_touchscreen only works for evtouch.  If you're using one of the other drivers, you'll have to calibrate differently.
[23:47] <persia> There's usually some documentation in /usr/share/doc/${package}/ about how to do that.
[23:48] <persia> I'm heading off, but good luck getting it all to work right.
[23:51] <munroe> thanks
