Hi Marc,

The specific display I have is the one from DFROBOT which emulates the
original Rpi display as far as I know.

I came up with two different approaches, neither of which I got any
comments from. I haven't spent any additional time on it and have just
been carrying around a custom patch to support it.

You can find my patches here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-input/list/?series=3D596977&stat=
e=3D%2A&archive=3Dboth
- add support for DFROBOT touch controller
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg76457.html - proposal of
adding a new driver

There's possibly a newer version of the patch that adds a new driver
on a 6.1 kernel here:
https://github.com/Gateworks/linux-venice/commit/5bf0ffcf0352b45c29d33184e9=
33a35dd53f27bb

Is this the same touch controller you are working with?

Best Regards,

Tim
