Support start from 2.6.32-ubuntu, or 2.6.34.
To configure HIDInput, put in your configuration
[input]
# devicename = hidinput,/dev/input/eventXX
# example with Stantum MTP4.3" screen
stantum = hidinput,/dev/input/event2
Note
You must have read access to the input event.
You have the possibility to use custom range for some X, Y and pressure value. On some drivers, the range reported is invalid. To fix that, you can add one of theses options on the argument line :
For example, on Asus T101M, the touchscreen report a range from 0-4095 for X and Y value, but real value are in a range from 0-32768. You can put it on configuration
[input]
t101m = hidinput,/dev/input/event7,max_position_x=32768,max_position_y=32768
