EVM8168 How to activate usb mouse in menuconfig

Hi,

I'm trying to get the usb optical mouse run with my EVM8168. I'm using EZSDK 5.02.

First I loaded the ti8168_evm_defconfig.

Than I've enabled PS/2 Mouse in Input Devices via menuconfig, but when I startup the board, the mouse LED won't turn on and I can't use the mouse in Matrix GUI.

Can anyone help me?

BTW, if I boot from the SD-card delivered with the board, the mouse works fine and if I use the kernel from the SD-Card loaded with ethernet, the mous turns on, but Matrix GUI isn't displayed on the HDMI-Display.

BR,

Kristian

  • Hi Kristian ,

             In AM335x we follow the as I mention Below:

    Enable Mouse

    On your Target File system, edit the file: /etc/init.d/matrix-gui-2.0


    For Mouse support, Replace:
    if [ -e /dev/input/touchscreen0 ]
    then
    export QWS_MOUSE_PROTO=Tslib:/dev/input/touchscreen0
    with
    if [ -e /dev/input/touchscreen0 ]
    then
    export QWS_MOUSE_PROTO=Tslib:/dev/input/touchscreen0
    #
    To Enable both Mouse and touchscreen simultaneously:

    Replace
    export
    QWS_MOUSE_PROTO=Tslib:/dev/input/touchscreen0
    with
    export
    QWS_MOUSE_PROTO="Tslib:/dev/input/touchscreen0 Auto"

  • Hi Praveen,

    thank you for your answer, but this could be a problem in which we run later.

    My problem is, that the mouse won't be recognized, when i plug it to the USB-ports of my TI8168, so that I need a discription how to active or configure this ports with the menuconfig of our kernel, so that the mouse would be recognized.

    Regards

    Kristian

  • please paste kernel log after mouse attach, which given in dmesg.
