devh-egalax.so

Driver for USB Egalax touch devices

Syntax:

io-hid -d egalax [option[,option ...]] ... &

Runs on:

QNX Neutrino

Options:

Note: Use commas, not spaces, to separate the options.

device=0xXXXX: Pass in an alternative device ID.
info: Gather more information on the controller. This is only for general information purposes and simply sends the information to slogger2.
noinit: Don't initialize the controller.
Note: Don't use this option unless you're certain that the default protocol your controller is using is the Egalax protocol.
upath=path: The USB stack path; the default is /dev/usb/io-usb-otg.
vendor=0xXXXX: Pass in an alternative vendor ID.
verbose=level: Be verbose and specify the level of debug information (range 1-5).
wait=num: The number of seconds to wait for the USB stack to come up.

Description:

The Egalax touchscreens aren't HID-compliant, so the devh-egalax.so DLL converts Egalax native controller packets into generic HID packets, which devi-hid then handles.

Note: If you're using this driver with the USB (devh-usb.so) module, you must specify the igndev option to devh-usb.so, specifying the Egalax vendor and device IDs.

Examples:

Start io-hid using the Egalax driver, and then start devi-hid:

io-hid -d egalax &
devi-hid touch

Start io-hid using the Egalax driver at high verbosity and with a new stack path:

io-hid -d egalax verbose=5,upath=/dev/payton-usb/ &
