Right now, it doesn't compile since it missed out on a few API changes that occured since the above error message was committed.

This has recently been done for the dynapro driver that also used to have its own X driver. Now it should just work with evdev, without having to configure X specifically. For the dynapro commit, see <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dtor/input.git;a=commitdiff;h=b1680a3bbfb86de49bf2679b100b6f2e1ce03a27">http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dtor/input.git;a=commitdiff;h=b1680a3bbfb86de49bf2679b100b6f2e1ce03a27</a> I really recommend going this option, the dmc driver seems to be close enough to dynapro that the above commit can be used as a template. Cheers, Peter </pre> </blockquote> Thank you, I'll try to go with your recommendation. By the way, just for a note, - I use knoppix 6.0 installed on a harddisk. I can see the mouse pointer moving when I touch the screen. But I couldn't find how to calibrate it. When I move my finger to the right the pointer goes down. - Then I tried to install the evtouch driver from the synaptic packet manager and made necessary xorg.conf changes. Now I can calibrate  it via xorg.conf. But works very poorly. Evtouch driver seems to be written to support many mouse input events such as right click and middle mouse click etc. Therefore some times it doesn't understand if I click or tried to generate another event. Infact I dont need any of these events. I only need mouse up and down events (I assume click will be generated automatically). If you have comments on these I'd be glad to hear it.
