Last I looked it did not depend on any libraries. Unlike my touchpaint code, this does not check to see which event device is the zforce touchscreen. Its assumptions about which device only work when booted from main. If you boot from diags, you need to swap the event device number 2/3...

Did you use diags SSH to test it?

Also, code compiled using the 5.1.0 header files will NOT work on 5.0.x if it uses eink ioctl updates, and if compiled with 5.0.x headers eink ioctl updates will not work on 5.1.x. Calling eips should work fine though.

You did not say HOW it is not working. Is the problem with eink updates, or with touchscreen?

Also, if touchscreen is not working, you may need to tap the power button...
