Thanks a lot! Today I'll release the next version with your update. It works with my Glo also.

Glad it works. As for the code, maybe this one is better than what I had first.

Code:

currentRotation=$(cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rotate)
echo 0 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rotate
$ROOT/launcher -qws -stylesheet $STYLESHEET
echo "$currentRotation" > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rotate

PS: I use your libraries in my Kobo Start Menu. Some users have problems with it since FW 3.2.0. I guess the same problems would concern the KoboLauncher too. Maybe you could have a look at the more recent posts of this threat?

Hi!

Version 1.2.6.37 is released. The single fix - screen orientation for FW3.2.0 (thanks, tshering).

So, DO NOT INSTALL IT if you have no problem with screen orientation.

It should work on Touch, Aura 6'', Glo.

Does it work with the Aura HD and Mini?

Yes, it seems better. So, I'll test it and add into the next version.

Yes, I'll look into this. First, I'll install Kobo Start Menu.

I just installed version 1.2.6.37 on my Glo, but the screen remains still unresponsive.

Sergey,

I would like to share some thoughts. Since the recent FW includes now a mouse/touch driver, I thought we might be getting better results by using the kobo libraries.

The executable is running, but shows no response to touch. The importent debug data from my first run are

Code:

QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() looking at "/usr/local/Kobo/plugins/gfxdrivers/libimxepd.so" 
keys ("imxepd") 
killall: on-animator.sh: no process killed
killall: pickel: no process killed
Screen resolution is.. 600 x 800 
QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() looking at "/usr/local/Kobo/plugins/mousedrivers/libtouchscreen.so" 
keys ("touch_device") 
QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type 'QList<QTouchEvent::TouchPoint>'
(Make sure 'QList<QTouchEvent::TouchPoint>' is registered using qRegisterMetaType().)
Loading iType..  YES

Since I don't know much of developing, I have no clear idea how to register and use this. I did some random trials. One of them is

Code:

    ui->setupUi(this);
    qRegisterMetaType<QList<QTouchEvent::TouchPoint> >("QList<QTouchEvent::TouchPoint>");
    this->setAttribute(Qt::WA_AcceptTouchEvents);
    ui->listWidget->setAttribute(Qt::WA_AcceptTouchEvents);

The debug log then was

Code:

QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() looking at "/usr/local/Kobo/plugins/gfxdrivers/libimxepd.so" 
keys ("imxepd") 
killall: on-animator.sh: no process killed
killall: pickel: no process killed
Screen resolution is.. 600 x 800 
QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() looking at "/usr/local/Kobo/plugins/mousedrivers/libtouchscreen.so" 
keys ("touch_device") 
Loading iType..  YES

Still no response to touch. Maybe it is evident for you how to do it correctly.

As far as I know, thay still use Qt 4.6.4. I use Qt 4.8.5. It's better for me to find the reason why my mouch driver doesn't work.

What hacks have you installed?

I'm on 3.2.0 with DNSB's libnickel patches. And with my own minimal modification: just a line added to rcS to call a local script and start dropbear sshd from that.

I've had everything running just fine pre-3.2.0.

Hello, I think you have to substitute in .kobo/vlasovsoft/usbnet.sh this line:

PHP Code:


			
if [ $DEVICE == TOUCH ]; then

with this line:

PHP Code:


			
if [ "$DEVICE" == "TOUCH" ]; then

Didn't work on Aura HD - no problems with rotation - looks exactly as it should on the screen, but does not response to touches.
If some debugging will help - let me know what is needed.

Are you by chance running FW 3.2.0 and the "Two-fingers light control on older models" kernel is installed?

+1

The only way to fix it is factory reset. It will completely uninstalls "Two-fingers light control".

Another option:

Is 2-finger light control exists for Kobo Glo? I can install it to my Glo and find the reason if so.
