I looked at that link, and it's obvious that it does not work in 10.04 since hal is not used anymore (deprecated) and since they use hal rules inthere...
But I adapted it to 10.04 (with xorg.conf.d) and it works for my touchscreen!!!
I have a Samsung Q1 ultra. My touchscreen is a
ID 0eef:0001 D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd eGalax TouchScreen
as reported by lsusb
and udev reports it as Touchkit Touch (that's how I found it in Xorg.0.log)
So here's the configuration I added to /usr/lib/X11/xorg,conf.d:
file name 11-touchkit.conf
Code:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Touchkit Touch"
MatchIsTablet "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evtouch"
Option "ReportingMode" "Raw"
Option "Emulate3Buttons"
Option "Emultate3Timeout" "50"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "On"
Option "TapTimer" "200"
Option "LongTouchTimer" "400"
Option "MinX" "145"
Option "MinY" "193"
Option "MaxX" "3973"
Option "MaxY" "3898"
EndSection
I got those evtouch options out of an old xorg.conf file from a configuration package specially made for a q1ultra which existed in the ubuntu 8.04 time.
And now it runs perfectly!!!
I also calibrated it using the utility in the first post, but I don't think that was necessary.
Thanks everybody for your contributions
I'm glad I got everything together finally
And I hope that it can be of use to anyone
Edit: To be clear to anyone, I also was troubled by the cursor stuck in upper left corner 'bug' after clicking once. So I can advice everyone with that problem to install xserver-xorg-input-evtouch and add a file like mine to the directory xorg.conf.d
