Whenever I tried to tap on a target, it wouldn't be hit :( I unfortunately had another failure which bricked my Z later on (report to come in another post) and am not able to replay the situation :( But before starting the calibration tool, I noticed that at some time, maybe after opening and rotating the screen (I don't remember exactly), I got the pointer to move in exact oposite direction from where I would drag it... For what it's worth... Something else, also, after full reinstall (including NAND), I notice that by default, on the akita, with screen opened (keyboard accessible, not rotated), the Display is set to "Portrait" in the Screen Setup utility... wouldn't it normally be landscape in that case ? I guess that maybe this could be linked to my problem ? Hope the description of the problem is clear and it triggers someone's mind ;) Best regards, -- Olivier BERGER (OpenPGP: 1024D/B4C5F37F) APRIL (http://www.april.org) - Vive python (http://www.python.org) Pétition contre les brevets logiciels : http://petition.eurolinux.org ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
