General Category > plpevtch - Xorg Touchscreen Driver
No input driver matching `plpevtch'
deBaer:
Hi!
I'm using a POS terminal with a Semtech ScreenCoder touchscreen connected on an internal PS/2 bus.
I installed plpevtch the way it's described on the page, and this is my xorg.conf:

When I start X, the touchscreen is handled like an ordinary mouse (I can push the cursor around, but it doesn't jump to the spot I'm tapping) and the Xorg.0.log looks like this:

I think the line (EE) No input driver matching `plpevtch' is strange. The driver exists in the directory /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input, so X should be able to load it. Or what does the error mean?
Elmar:
hi,
did you compile the plpevtch? if yes, how?
regards
elmar
deBaer:
Yes, I compiled the 5.0 source tar from your page with ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && sudo make install
Elmar:
hmm, strange. its loaded by xorg and then xorg tries to reload it and doesn't find it. i have no idea whats wrong. i never had to do with a ps/2 connected touchscreen. i don't know if that is a part of the problem.
Fredouille66:
Hi,
I have the same issue:
Ubuntu 10.10 x64 studio
HTPC case with SoundGraph 7 inch LCD touch screen (USB interface)
I know that this problem occures when evdev driver is loaded before plpevtch driver. On the other hand, if plpevtch is loaded before evdev, I have the message No input driver matching 'evdev'
Regards
Fred
