NAME
uep – eGalax touchscreen driver
SYNOPSIS
device uep device usb device evdev options EVDEV_SUPPORT
In loader.conf(5): uep_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The uep driver provides support for the eGalax onscreen touch panels.
The driver is a stub. It just probes and attaches to USB device, creates a device entry and feeds reassembled packets from the hardware to it. Depending on compile-time kernel options it supports either native or evdev operation modes.
To get the mouse working in X(7) (ports/x11/xorg-docs) in native mode, install ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-egalax.
To get the mouse working in X(7) (ports/x11/xorg-docs) in evdev mode, install ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev.
KERNEL CONFIGURATION
The following settings can be configured at kernel compile time, see build(7):
- options EVDEV_SUPPORT
-
Enable evdev output. This requires device evdev only if enabled.
FILES
uep creates a blocking pseudo-device file, /dev/uep0 in native mode or /dev/input/eventN in evdev mode.

BUGS
uep cannot act like sysmouse(4), as sysmouse(4) does not support absolute motion events.
