Pavel Subject: axes conversion for hp compaq 8710w for HP_ACCEL linux kernel module From: Luca Cappa Hello, I have a laptop HP Compaq 8710W, I compiled into my kernel the LIS3LV02DL and HP_ACCEL module drivers. While loading it cannot recognize the laptop model, so i am sending the necessary information to update the database of Axes Orientations. >When the laptop is horizontal the position reported is about 0 for X and Y >and a positive value for Z Yes, it is about 0,0,1000, the actual reading says: (-17,-26,1018); > If the left side is elevated, X increases (becomes positive) Yes, X goes toward to positive 1000. >If the front side (where the touchpad is) is elevated, Y decreases (becomes negative) No, Y goes toward to positive 1000. >If the laptop is put upside-down, Z becomes negative Yes, the laptop on a table Z gives 1000, and if upsidedown the Z reads -1000. So in few words the Y axis is inverted, I paste here below the very simple patch to configure properly the axis conversion. The patch is against the file hp_accel.c of 2.6.29-rc8, i.e. the one shown here: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/hwmon/hp_accel.c;h=29c83b5b96974bb88cbeb67d896ba46ee71469f2;hb=HEAD Greetings, Luca --- /home/luca/Desktop/hp_accel.c 2009-03-21 19:28:54.000000000 +0100 +++ hp_accel.c 2009-03-21 19:31:05.000000000 +010 @@ -201,6 +201,7 @@ PRODUCT_NAME, "HP Pavilion dv5", BOARD_NAME, "3600", y_inverted), + AXIS_DMI_MATCH("HP8710", "HP Compaq 8710", y_inverted), { NULL, } /* Laptop models witho ----- End forwarded message ----- -- (english) http://www.livejournal.com/~pavelmachek (cesky, pictures) http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/picture/horses/blog.html
