Hi folks

I tried to get XBMC running on my CarPC. I'm using the beta 2, installed as deb from launchpad.net on Ubuntru 8.04. I currently use the evtouch driver on Xorg that came with the distro.
It can emulate the right mouse button by pressing a longer time on one place.

Here is my xorg.conf snipplet:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "touchscreen"
    Driver "evtouch"
    Option "Device" "/dev/input/event4"
    Option "DeviceName" "touchscreen"
    Option "MinX" "159"
    Option "MinY" "139"
    Option "MaxX" "1913"
    Option "MaxY" "1796"
#    Option "ReportingMode" "Raw"
#   Option "Emulate3Buttons"
#    Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
    Option "SendCoreEvents" "On"
#     Option "Calibrate" "1"
#    Option "SwapX" "1"
   Option "SwapY" "1"
   Option "Rotate" "cw"
#   option "Rotate" "ccw"
   Option "MoveLimit" "5"
   Option "LongTouchTimer" "2000"
   Option "longtouched_action" "click"
   Option "longtouched_button" "3"
#   Option "TapTimer" "2000"
#   Option "maybetapped_action" "click"
#   Option "maybetapped_button" "3"
EndSection

My other applications runs fine with these settings, but XBMC ignores all clicks. The events come in correctly (ButtonPress and directly after ButtonReleaseEvent), but I've seen that the touchscreen generates many NotifyEvents before and after the click.

The other problem is that the pointer inside XBMC does not fit to the touchscreen. In all other applications it does.
