Hello,

I've seen that the 4.9-rc0 pull request for the input submodule [1] was
removing the ft6326 driver (the edt-ft5x06 driver is supposed to be
equivalent).

Yet, there are some small things (that I happen to use, unfortunately)
that are not handled neither by the touchscreen API nor by the new driver,
namely the OF properties touchscreen-inverted-x, touchscreen-inverted-y and
touchscreen-swapped-x-y. These are really helpfull when you deal with
strange screen orientation.

Is there a plan to implement these before the release of 4.9 (in order to
make the new driver a full equivalent of the removed one) ?

What makes you think that the edt-ft5x06 driver does not take
touchscreen-inverted-x and friends into account ?

That has been fixed quite a while ago, it uses the new
touchscreen_parse_properties() and touchscreen_report_pos()
helper functions which take these into account.
My bad. I was looking at 2 different kernel trees - the 4.9-rc and a
4.4 (which lacks the -inverted-* properties).

Sorry for the question and the wasted time.
Please give it a try, it should work.

Regards,

Hans
