Asus T91 linux installation

This is this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/573006

Please confirm it and add your hardware details.

Seems to be a driver bug, the driver is reporting wrong positions. I might be able to fix it if somebody could tell me which driver/package/source code is actually used.

Could you elaborate on what you are looking for? I am using 10.04 still.

Has anyone found a fix for the problem with touchscreen not lifting the pointer yet for 10.10???

The pointer doesn't lift? I can't say I've had that issue in 10.10.

Can you elaborate?

When you tap, and tap somewhere else, the cursor stays clicked down and will draw a line between the two points.

Adding a ppa for xorg-edgers works for me.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

Run the Ubuntu update utility and make sure you deselect all of the video packages or it will blow up your hard work getting the psb drivers to work.

My only problem now is that I don't know how to calibrate the touchscreen. I downloaded a utility called xinput_calibrator, but it doesn't seem to work. Any thoughts?

Sounds like something is wrong with your t91mt.

Do you have any issues when using the track pad by any chance? How about the track pad's right and left click buttons?

I am new to this world of Linux. I would be lying if I said that I knew how to do any of this. Where doI go exactly to make these changes to get my rotation button working? Also, is there a way to get wifi working without having to open a terminal and type sudo rfkill unblock all each time I turn on the machine?

try my packages for the GMA500 team at: ppa:gma500/emgd
do a upgrade and it should work fine

After following this thread, everything seems to work ok, except for the external video seems to no longer work... is there something I am missing or was disabled by one of the other settings?

It didn't work for me either. But adding the file below as /etc/X11/Xsession.d/98x11-common_touchscreen did:

#!/bin/sh
# calibrates touchscreen for each X session

xinput set-int-prop 9 "Evdev Axis Calibration" 32 300 7900 400 7800

(From here: http://setupguides.blogspot.com/2010...untu-1010.html)

Note that the 9 might be different; use the ID from the first "IDEACOM IDC 6680" device displayed after doing:
