This page is about `deviceinfo_dev_touchscreen` from the deviceinfo file.

How to find the touchscreen device name?

  • Connect to your initramfs via telnet
  • Run ls /dev/input
  • Note down all devices. If you see one with "touch" in the name, that is a good candidate.
  • Try out one after another:
    • Change deviceinfo_dev_touchscreen in your deviceinfo
    • Rebuild the deviceinfo package, initramfs and flash:
 pmbootstrap checksum device-nokia-rx51
 pmbootstrap build --force device-nokia-rx51
 pmbootstrap initfs # rebuild initramfs
 pmbootstrap flasher boot_kernel
