I followed the instructions in adafruit-2-8-pitft-capacitive-touch.pdf
I am using the capacitive tft image the pdf points to (http://adafru.it/e11). The console works, the TFT also displays x-windows fine. But the touch feature doesn't work. I noticed there was no /dev/input/touchscreen. The ribbon cable wasn't tight, I fixed this, now I see /dev/input/touchscreen. But, still no touch response. I tested with evtest and it lists all the event codes and stops at "Testing.....(interrupt to exit)". But it doesn't output any response to my touching the TFT.
dmesg displays no errors, it looks like everything is a "go" for the TFT here.
I purchased the pre-assembled TFT.
Any help would be appreciated.
