Hi!

Actually I am experiencing problems with a driver. I followed a nice step by spep how-to to compile the driver and to copy all files to the appropriate places.

So here are the steps I did in short:
- compiled the driver
- copied a file to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input
- changed the X11Config File
- "install -m 644 /elo/elok_s.o /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/elok_s.o"
- modified module depencies - "/sbin/depmod -q"
- lastly mentioned the daemon in bootlocal.sh

Everything seemed to work and I got no errors. But after reboot just before X wants to start my screen gets filled with
"-su: /dev/null: Permission denied"
messages.

As I am still beginner to Linux I cant imagine how to solve. Every Idea would be really appreciated!!

Thanks in advance,

Jan

PS: Its a touchscreendriver and I did that on a full HD Installation

Ok problem solved!

If someone else is wondering how to use the official elo touchscreendriver with DSL:

I dont know myself ^^

But you should try to use the elodriver that comes with XFree86.dsl because this seems to work fine for me!
