Title: Touchpad Not Accepting Input / Mcp Write Timeout
Post by: osx4zaurus on June 23, 2005, 04:53:48 pm
I can see the opi "click anywhere" screen but it doesn't accept any clicks.  I can login to the system fine via the terminal and everything works great - the only thing I keep getting is a "mcp: write timeout" anyone know what this is or have any idea how to fix the touchpad not accepting input problem?  I'm running a variation of the 0.9 release.

If it's a touchscreen sensetivity problem, try suggestion posted on the other thread (changing value in /etc/ts.conf).

I'm also getting mcp: write timeout error messages.

I've tried that but it is not really a sensitivity issue as it is totally non-responsive.  It may be that the mcp issue is unrelated but I don't see any other errors.  Thanks!

Everyone gets the mcp: write timeout messages, I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with it...

Interesting ... I've just flashed my SL4 with a fresh build of opensimpad and got the same problem - stuck on initial calibrate touchscreen screen. Anyone know what has changed in OE during last six months that could cause that?

Touchscreen support changed in the 2.6 kernel - is your build using that kernel?

(Thanks to Frederic Devernay for this info)

No, I'm still using 2.4.25. Any idea what was changed and how to get it working with old 2.4.25 kernel?

EDIT: Err, was a typo in the number.

Can you tell us what you had to do?

Just reverted back changes made for 2.6 kernel. There're two files you need to change on Simpad, both are text files: /etc/ts.conf and /etc/profile.d/tslib.sh. Both could be easily edited on Simpad by hand.
Here's the links to changes needs to be reverted:
