Have you tried it more than once? Maybe there is just a startup problem. I have used both 4pcal and 25pcal and it does make a difference to the accuracy of the "mouse" pointer placement on the screen when you touch the screen. The only important thing is that you have to run 4pcal and/or 25pcal before you load tpaneld because both try to use the uep device. > Everyting else seems to work like a charm so far.

I think the usb driver, uep, should go into the main source and the rest should be a port. At the moment I'm preparing for a 10 day trip in Aug to Botswana and the Caprivi part of Namibia, so I have some other things with higher priority. I needed the touchscreen for the car computer tgough. :-) I'll look at getting the uep driver into FreeBSD. If you want to look at making a port out of the rest, that will be great. > Will look at it after I get back from vacation. Thanks again and > good work! Ok.
