    Dear SGaist, thanks for your reply. It seems it is a serial device. Is it possible to get the x,y coordinates from the screen and then map it to the QT Screen so that i can know what button is clicked? I have done serial programming in QT for GPS devices, but i have no idea of mapping to the Framebuffer to know what widget is getting touch.

    Just give me some pointers so that i can think in that direction.
    Thanks :)

      Didn't you succeed configuring tslib ?

        no because there is no dedicated driver, it is a serial device :(

          How does the system see it ? /dev/ttyS0 or something like that ?

            yes you are correct, also i found that when i do
            @cat ttyS1@

            then some junk characters are printed on putty terminal whenever i touch the lcd.
            But i am not able to see x,y coordinates. I think some baud rate mismatch is there.

              hexdump will give you a cleaner output.

              Well, AFAIK, setting TSLIB_TSDEVICE to /dev/ttyS1 should get you started, no ?

                I tried setting the same:

                @
                export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=linuxfb
                export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/home/Sid/plugins/generic
                export QT_QPA_GENERIC_PLUGINS=tslib
                export QT_QPA_FONTDIR=/home/Sid/fonts
                export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/Sid
                export TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb0
                export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/ttyS1 -------->>SEE THIS
                export TSLIB_PLUGINDIR=/home/Sid/tslib_plugins
                export TSLIB_CONFFILE=/home/Sid/ts.conf

                @

                But when i run ./ts_test, i get no output :(
                The program keeps running without any output unit i give Ctrl+C

                  Did you run ts_calibrate first ?

                              I downloaded TSLIB (tslib-1.0) from sourceforgenet. And then crosscompiled it for powerpc. and then modified qmake.conf to include soure and libs. Also test lib test was successful.

                              I copied libqtslibplugin.so to plugins/generic folder.

                                Not the Qt tslib plugin, the plugin from tslib itself
