I plan to fix it after release of Lenny.
It does make the package unusable by all except a particular number of devices - in fact any device that does not have the screen resolutions explicitly hard coded into the driver. The devices affected include the OpenMoko which is getting quite a lot of interest and users should be able to use Lenny on the OpenMoko and Balloon, IMHO. Without this patch, that becomes almost impossible. Within the confines of what the driver normally has to do, hardcoded calibration axes results in a complete inability to not only use the driver as-is but also makes any device affected almost completely unusable because the touchscreen is expected to be the primary control device of the machine. I'd support making this bug 'serious'. > However, if my sponsor want to see it fixed for Lenny, > I will be happy to do it.

Please test on the Sharp Zaurus - I'm at DebConf currently (without my main upload key) but I can arrange for a sponsored upload either here or when I get home in a week. We need to fix this properly for Lenny. As long as you are able to test on the Sharp Zaurus sometime in the next 7-10 days, we should do so. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
