Free xorg xfree86 synaptics touchpad driver software for linux

Semtech Touchscreen Driver is a driver on X for the Semtech Touchscreen as found on the GoBook III manufactured by Itronix.

It comes with a calibration program and has been tested on Linux 2.6.9.

You will need a kernel with the following options compiled.

CONFIG_SERIO_RAW=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSE=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y

Next you will need to enable raw PS/2 reporting for the touchscreen. Type in the following command:

echo -n "serio_raw" > /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/driver

You should see the following message:

serio_raw: raw access enabled on isa0060/serio2 (serio_raw0, minor 1)

Compiling:

Type the following command to compile the driver:

make

Installing:

Do the following as root to install the driver:

make install

Configuration:

You will need to issue this command every time the computer starts so I suggest you stick somewhere in the initalization scripts.

Add a section in xorg.conf or XF86Config that looks like this:

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "semtech"
Identifier "Semtech Touchscreen"
Option "Device" "/dev/serio_raw0"
Option "DebugLevel" "0"
Option "CalibrateA" "-369046"
Option "CalibrateB" "1114"
Option "CalibrateC" "4893014"
Option "CalibrateD" "-2152"
Option "CalibrateE" "-282719"
Option "CalibrateF" "5331971"
Option "CalibrateDiv" "-359811"
EndSection

Note that the device can also be called /dev/psaux depending on your setup.

Start X and run the touchcal program to calibrate your screen. It will ouput the calibration information

There is also a program called touchcal.pl, it requires the Perl Tk toolkit. The program will write calibration information on your X configuration file.

Open Aureal Linux Driver is a fork of Aureals own soundcard drivers for the Vortex 2, Vortex 1 and Vortex Advantage. It is built with the goals of making the drivers more Open Sound System (OSS) compliant, more stable, and supporting later kernels.
Installing the Driver
1. Unpack the distribution:
tar xvzf aureal*.tar.gz
2. Change to the driver directory and become root:
cd aureal*
su
3. Edit the Makefile to suit your system (SMP, CPU type, etc)
4. Type the following install commands:
If you have an 8830-based (Vortex 2) card:
make install
If you have an 8820-based (Vortex 1) card:
make install20
If you have an 8810-based (Vortex Advantage) card:
make install10
There is no need to reboot.
Note: if you get "unresolved symbol" errors during the install, rebuild your kernel with sound support (soundcore) built in (not a module).
Enhancements:
- Works with kernel 2.4.0

libsynaptics is a library intended to support all upcoming driver versions of the Xorg Synaptics Touch Pad Driver. Programs that want to access the touch pad should make use of this library and will thereby not interfere with each other.
Available parameters can be read and written and the version of the installed driver can be determined. It is still not clear whether libsynaptics will be distributed seperately or within the driver package (which seems to be the better solution to me!).
Enhancements:
A new release of libsynaptics and ksynaptics is now available. This fixes several bugs and breaks backward compatibility with earlier libsynaptics versions. This is why you will have to update both libsynaptics and ksynaptics or keep your current versions.
- new: new mouse button icons (svg based)
- fixed: syndock would run in smart mode even if disabled in ksynaptics
- new: rewrote libsynaptics 0.14.6c, an bug-fixing rewrite
- fixed: the nasty syndock crash on logout should be fixed
IMPORTANT:
- Install libsynaptics 0.14.c first!
- Since the latest libsynaptics breaks backwards compatibility, you cannot use any libsynaptics prior to 0.14.c!

KSynaptics is a control center module that enables users to take full advantage of their mobiles synaptics touch pad. KSynaptics project depends on the XFrees synaptics driver.
Main features:
- adjustable pressure sensitivity
- tapping configuration / smart tapping
- mouse button emulation
- circular scrolling
- smart mode
Enhancements:
- new mouse button icons
- syndock would run in smart mode even if disabled in ksynaptics

The xterm program is the standard terminal emulator for the X Window System. It provides DEC VT102/VT220 and Tektronix 4014 compatible terminals for programs that cant use the window system directly.
If the underlying operating system supports terminal resizing capabilities (for example, the SIGWINCH signal in systems derived from 4.3bsd), xterm will use the facilities to notify programs running in the window whenever it is resized.
Enhancements:
- increase color pairs value for xterm-256color and xterm-88color to match ncurses, which has an experimental option to support this.
- modify ifdefs to make AIX use termios rather than termio; the struct sizes for the two were not the same.
- improve CF_WITH_IMAKE_CFLAGS configure macro script for OSMAJORVERSION and OSMINORVERSION values, e.g., for Tru64 and AIX.
- modify ifdef to define USE_POSIX_TERMIOS for Darwin (patch by Min Sik Kim).
- modify find_utmp() to initialize the whole utmpx struct (except ut_id), since that is needed for OSF1 4.0D to prevent an infinite loop on exit.
- add configure check before adding -D_POSIX_SOURCE since some platforms predefine it, e.g., cygwin.
- add simplified sed expressions in CF_IMAKE_CFLAGS configure script macro to ensure value for PROJECTROOT is quoted on Solaris, i.e., when nested ( and ) are not interpreted correctly.
- correct DEC rectangle operations to reset state after completing the operations.
- modify CASE_ST handling in charproc.c to ensure that the parse state is reset even if xterm is not currently processing an OSC or other string (patch by Johnny Billquist forwarded by Matthias Scheler, NetBSD xsrc/29003).
- fix OS/2 build for innotek_libc (patch by David Yeo).
- fix a regression from patch #197 fix for Debian #277832 which disowned the selection if it was scrolled, e.g., by the user pressing return at the bottom of the screen (Debian #291787).
- move the warning/exit for missing $DISPLAY into the error handler in case -display is given, and the connect fails for some other reason.

nVidia FreeBSD Display Driver is the OpenGL nVidia support for graphic cards on FreeBSD operating systems.
Enhancements:
Added support for new GPUs:
- GeForce 7050 PV / NVIDIA nForce 630a
- GeForce 7025 / NVIDIA nForce 630a
Fixed console restore problems in several different configurations:
- Quadro FX 4400 SLI
- VESA console
- Notebook LCD displays
- Improved interaction with ATi RS480/482 based mainboards.
- Improved support for House Sync with G-Sync II.
- Improved NVIDIA X driver interaction with ACPI daemon.

HDBC PostgreSQL Driver is the Haskell PostgreSQL backend driver for HDBC.

Please see HDBC itself for documentation on use. If you dont already have it, you can browse this documentation at http://darcs.complete.org/hdbc/doc/index.html.

This package provides one function in module Database.HDBC.PostgreSQL:

{- | Connect to a PostgreSQL server.

See for the meaning of the connection string. -}

connectPostgreSQL :: String -> IO Connection

An example would be:
