Usage Information |
The Stylistic 3500 is a Pentium 2, 400mhz powered, touchscreen computer.
Running as an Orbiter
Works very nice with the Windows orbiter and an additional W-LAN card.
Running as a (limited) Media Director
To get it running as a Media Director, capable of playing audio, and controlling other Media Directors, a couple of things have to downloaded and configured after the initial Media Director boot.
Setup Touchscreen
The touchscreen is an FPIT compatible touchscreen. To get the driver, do an
apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-fpit
Also, we need to work with the serial port, so we need
apt-get install setserial
After that, the xorg.conf needs to be configured manually.
First, we add the new input device in xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Touchscreen" Driver "fpit" Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS1" Option "BaudRate" "9600" Option "Passive" Option "CorePointer" Option "MaximumXPosition" "4070" Option "MaximumYPosition" "4020" Option "MinimumXPosition" "0" Option "MinimumYPosition" "0" EndSection
Next we add this input section to the ServerLayout section.
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "XFree86 Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 # InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Touchscreen" EndSection
No need for the mouse anymore.
Now reboot your media director, and see if everything works.
Troubleshooting
If nothing happens when you touch the screen, try another /dev/ttyS, for example /dev/ttyS3
Small Things
The PC is not capable of playing videos. You might want to delete the automatically generated scenario Video from the room, the media director is assigned to.
