    To be sure my waveshare driver is working correctly we need to analyze the hidraw data as explained here (under hidraw driver analysis).
    But first you need to download xxd tool for RPi2 or RPi.
    Before running it you need to stop some services

    Code
    systemctl stop kodi
systemctl stop ts_uinput_touch
chmod +x xxd*
./xxd-RPi2 -c 25 /dev/hidraw0


    You should see line started with aa01 or aa00. If you don't change number 25 to lower or higher.

    Instead of /dev/hidraw0 you could try /dev/hidraw1, ..

    If your cursor movement is good then it is just a matter of calibration the screen I think.
    Regarding inverted screen: in file ts.conf add swap_xy=1 to line with module linear like it is done in ts.conf-generic.

    I was wrong: pid is 0001. That's why use PRODUCT_PID=0001.
    And kodi log is not important - you should see ts_uinput_touch process running.
    You can also check why touchscreen service is not started with command

    Code
    systemctl status service.touchscreen -l

    Code
    Input device ID: bus 0x3 vendor 0xeef product 0x1 version 0x210
Input device name: "eGalax Inc. USB TouchController"


    Seems to me this is waveshare thing.
    In ts_env.sh change PRODUCT_PID to 0210.
    But this was only tested with display which had PRODUCT_PID=0005 and I don't know if your display will work too. Because this is hidraw device there is another entry in ts.conf named

    Code
    module_raw waveshare len=22


    len=22 indicates how much data it sends on one touch. You can read more here and if didn't work try len=25. If you can't figure out then you would need to use xxd tool to analyze the hidraw data (not included in addon).

    Also if using non-waveshare display then in file ts_env.sh TOUCHSCREEN_NAME variable must be set.

    This addon doesn't work magically when it is installed - it must be manually configured as written multiple times.

    In folder /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.touchscreen there are few files. You need to copy ts.conf and ts_env.sh based on samples there. I don't know what kind of display is this. If it is real egalax then use files ts.conf-generic and ts_env.sh-sample. If this is waveshare type then use waveshare files. After reboot calibration should work.

    Quote from 2ami


    does this site has any public proposal for hiring its developer, such as how much money one need to spend for supporting a single product for one year, lets say something like this
    kszaq only > $1000 /year
    escalade only > $2000 / year

    team work > $5000 /year
    not so much but its better thank coffee donation, isn't it
    if it does this way, maybe all company or start up would consider ask them for help


    I think you will need to multiply your numbers by a lot :)

    display_rotate isn't designed for the LCD, doesn't adjust touchscreen coordinates, and will also affect the HDMI display if you try to use both displays, so should be avoided if possible.

    I think what the correct display orientation is will be something not everyone will agree on. However if you prefer the other orientation then lcd_rotate=2 is the solution.


    I think you should try lcd_rotate=2 instead of display_rotate=2.
