Toughbook CF-19 Touchscreen calibration

us flag
Ernst

I am trying to calibrate my touchscreen on my toughbook cf-19 with a fresh install of lubuntu. I can click the crosses in xinput_calibrator and have put the snippet into the correct file, all to no avail. When I type sudo xinput_calibrator --list I am told no calibratable devices found. When then trying to install xserver-xorg-input-evdev i am told that I have held broken packages. Can someone point me in the right direction?

uname gives: Linux Toughbook 5.4.0-42-generic #46~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 10 07:09:27 UTC 2020 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux

sorry guys, I wasn't aware that this is so important.

ernst@Toughbook:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic

I see that I am actually using Ubuntu... When booting the screen says Lubuntu. The reason for the old release is that my machine is 32bit and I was told all newer releases are only 64bit. Is this true?

right you are! I had assumed that as I had bought the machine with a 32bit OS (WIN7) that it had a 32bit Processor. I will now install a newer OS, and hopefully have fewer problems. Thanks for the trouble you took.

Providing release details of your Lubuntu is a start; we currently have little detail about what software stack you're using (Ubuntu LTS releases offer two kernel stack choices, and I'm not including OEM options, so being specific is helpful - but currently you've provided no stack details as we don't know your release which is the usual start).

`uname` gives details about the kernel, alas no what OS & release you're actually using. Indications show an HWE kernel for *i386* architecture with PAE (ie. i686 in kernel) but not what OS & release you're using; please provide details requested. *You however have provided details that don't match a fully supported/architecture release of Lubuntu*

FYI: Lubuntu 18.04 LTS is no longer supported; refer https://lubuntu.me/bionic-eol/ or https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2020/08/14/ubuntu-18-04-5-lts-released/ where you'll note only Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Desktop & Ubuntu Cloud come with 5 years of support; *flavors* had shorter lives. I'd suggest using `ubuntu-support-status` to assess the security status of your actual install. Your question is still on-topic here, but consider how much security matters to you and the results of prior command. You're now using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with LXDE (*not Lubuntu*).

I don't know your device; but a quick look at https://www.panasonic.com/au/support/product-archives/computers-tablets-and-pos/notebook-tablet/toughbook-2-in-1-convertible-laptops/cf-19.specs.html shows it's an *amd64* capable machine (i5-3610ME) as 32-bit machines are very rare post-2007 (ie. only very early atom n270 & like devices sold with win-XP). FYI: 32-bit windows was sold on 64-bit hardware as it dropped the price by $5; buyers understood the $5 more than 32 vs 64bits.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
