Update:
After exchanging a few emails with NextWindow support, they finally sent
me a driver, a "prototype written for ubuntu". I'm attaching the file
they sent me. I don't have much information about it, but it works great
with Ubuntu Karmic i386! These are the steps I took:
- Install Ubuntu 9.10 i386.
- Install the driver (nwfermi-0.1_i383.deb)
- Install some extra software: joystick (for testing) and xserver-xorg-
input-evtouch.
- Load the module:
sudo modprobe nw-fermi
- Activate the input device:
sudo sh -c "echo 1926 007a > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/nwfermi/new_id"
- After this, the device "/dev/input/event6" is working. Testing:
sudo evtest /dev/input/event6
- Restart Xorg (restart the session)
Moreover, I tweaked to work after reboot:
- Add "nw-fermi" to /etc/modules
- Add boot script to /etc/rc.local
sh -c "echo 1926 007a > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/nwfermi/new_id"
I hope this works for someone, I had never seen "nw-fermi" before. If it's new code, we should probably ask NextWindow to release the code.
