Hi!

Well, there is some historic confusion wether this driver reports resistance
or pressure.

The unpatched tsc2007 driver does it wrong (please test!) and we fix it on
the fly (because a separate patch is much more complex than doing it right
immediately).

This ti,report-resistance property is a means to get the old (wrong) meaning back
in case someone urgently needs it and can't fix the user-space workaround which
he must be using.


AFAIK there is no mainline board using the DT except ours (and the upcoming
OMAP5-Pyra), so we shouldn't care too much. If you prefer, you can remove this
compatibility property. We don't need it for our devices.

N900 is mainline and uses DT.

That the function name is wrong is a second issue and this double negation might
confuse a litte.

Please test on a real device if the patched driver reports pressure now (unless
ti,report-resistance is specified).

I unfortunately can not test this driver as I do not have the hardware.
So all my observations are from code and data sheets.

That said, what is the values emitted as ABS_PRESSURE when finger is not
touching the device, barely touching the device, or pressing firmly?
It seems that between TSC2007, TSC2004, TSC2005, and ADS7846, we have
confusion as to what is being reported.

I am adding a few more folks to the CC so we can try and soft this out.
Sebastian, Pali, Pavel, any input here?

X work ok on N900. Nikolaus wrote rather long email, but I'm not what
the meaning is and what is supposed to be broken there.

I do this on X startup:

xinput --set-prop --type=float "TSC200X touchscreen" "Coordinate Transformation Matrix"  1.10 0.00 -0.05  0.00 1.18 -0.10  0.00 0.00 1.00
xinput --set-prop --type=int "TSC200X touchscreen" "Evdev Axis Inversion" 0 1
xinput --set-prop --type=float "TSC2005 touchscreen" "Coordinate Transformation Matrix"  1\
.10 0.00 -0.05  0.00 1.18 -0.10  0.00 0.00 1.00
xinput --set-prop --type=int "TSC2005 touchscreen" "Evdev Axis Inversion" 0 1

And I agree that kernel should _not_ attempt rescaling itself, as it
would lose precision. Providing default calibration info is ok.
