Calibration is also supported since V0.6.0. You can also reuse your
settings from the old driver for the 2.6 driver. Actually you only
have to exchange the driver name in the "Inputdevice"-section from
"lbtouch" to "evtouch" and change the "Device".

<h2>Button-Events</h2>
-With the new state-machine based code (>= V 0.8) you can have three types of
-events which are mapped to actions like "left mouse-button click", or "right
-mouse-button down" and similar things. At the moment those actions are
-hard-coded but later on they should be configurable by the user.<br>
+<div>
+With the state-machine based code you can have the three types of button actions (button up, down, click) which are issued in different states of the state-machine. So the complete behaviour is configurable.

+<div>
+Have a look at <a href="libtouch.html">Libtouch</a> to see which default-actions are hard-coded in the driver and what you have to do to change the default-behaviour.
