Could we get complete /var/log/Xorg.*.log attached to this bug, please? Created attachment 304615 [details]
X server log when the probe fails

X server log when the probe succeeds
Did the logs help? Uwe: Is this still an issue? I could probably knock up a patch to fix that if you're willing to test it. Created attachment 320236 [details]
Naive patch to allow driver to start up without response to hardware probes.
Yes, this is still an issue. We have downloaded the upstream sources and made a naive change to enable initialization of the driver. I'll attach a patch for this.

Add suppport for "Model" option, and support Sunit dSeries model
Here's two quick patches (in the same file) against git master.
Patch 1 adds general support for config option "Model" to the driver.
Patch 2 parses Option "Model" "Sunit dSeries" and does not execute the query commands if the model is set.
It's not exactly the same as your patch since it doesn't send anything to the device. From your previous logfile I can see that you're not getting any replies from the screen but I'm not sure if that also implies that you don't have to send the command.
This looks great! I'll test them as soon as can, by friday at the latest. I'll report back here when I have tested the patches. I'll just leave the needinfo flag here so we get notified for sure. Hi Uwe, Peter and others Great work guys! I have tested these patches with 7", 8" and 10" Sunit touchscreens under Ubuntu 8.04 without any problems (apart from calibration problems but that was expected). Maybe Uwe will test these patches under Fedora. Now, Sunit d is actually dual display/touchscreen vehicle computer which means that it is possible to use two touchscreens with Sunit d. Both touchscreens use same COM2 port for sending data. First byte of the primary touchscreen (touchscreen connected to LVDS 1) is 55 (in hex) and first byte of secondary touchscreen (touchscreen connected to LVDS 2) is 66. So, at some point there will be need for patch to support secondary touchscreen or own driver for Sunit d touchscreens. At the moment there are problems getting the secondary display work under linux but it will be fixed sooner or later. Uwe: did you have any chance to test the patches for Fedora? Unless you found any issues, they'll be going upstream.(In reply to comment #10) > Now, Sunit d is actually dual display/touchscreen vehicle computer which means > that it is possible to use two touchscreens with Sunit d.

Jari, please take this upstream and file a bug on bugs.freedesktop.org. (it'll most likely be me doing it anyway if I find the time :) Sorry, I haven't found time to test this, and I probably will not find time any time soon, especially since the changes will go upstream if I do nothing :) I have looked at the patches you sent, and they look good.
