Psylem: /* Ubuntu 10.04 */

== Ubuntu 10.04 ==
Not sure what this page is referring too as Ubuntu 10.04 is not currently supported --[[User:Totallymaxed|Totallymaxed]] 21:39, 1 June 2010 (CEST)

Basically, this article is the best resource I have seen for configuring the touchscreen on the ET1602 anywhere on the net. I realise that this is not really related to your product, but wanted to say a big thank you here anyway, since this is just a discussion page. --[[User:Psylem|Psylem]] 04:29, 2 June 2010 (CEST)

Thanks so much for these instructions. It worked for me getting touchscreen to work under Ubuntu 10.04 out of the box. Two differences though, I had to generate a xorg.conf file as it's no longer created by default. To do so you need to login to a terminal and kill gdm-binary. On the login screen I used Alt+F1 to bring up a console then the following to generate the xorg.conf:

<code>$ sudo killall gdm-binary</code>

<code>$ sudo X -configure</code>

Then copy the generated xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and you can go ahead an apply the changes specified. There is no need to change the screen resolution to 1024x768 anymore. Thanks again, and I hope this helps someone else too.

Psylem: Forgot to mention you need to copy the file to /etc/X11
