As the title suggests, i&#39;m trying to add basic kdrive touchscreen support through evdev. I&#39;m doing this because i&#39;m trying to get rid of tslib. Tslib uses evdev internally  <div>so my idea was to eliminate the need for tslib by using parts of it to enhance kdrive&#39;s evdev pointer driver. Here&#39;s the experimental patch:</div>

</div><div><br></div><div>This patch was tested on a Sharp Zaurus C-1000 running kdrive 1.7.99.2. Kdrive was built with the Yocto build system. Tests were made with mrxvt, icewm, and xev. Everything seems to work just fine, coordinate scaling works, left mouse button works. But i have extremely erratic pointer movement when touching buttons, scrollbars or when moving windows. For instance, if i touch the root window or mrxvt window, the pointer behaves as expected. If i try to use the scrollbar or any of the buttons on mrxvt, move windows,  the pointer goes crazy and most often jumps to the edges of the screen (size 640x480). This is clearly visible in Xev output, for instance: </div>
