Driver for ezPad 6 plus linux

Open jeremyle-planorama opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

I am looking for a driver for the touchscreen ezpad 6 plus (JUMPER). Anybody has it ?

Do you have Windows or Android drivers for it? If yes, we should at least be able to extract the firmware.

Trying to find one ... Do you believe ezpad 6 plus is just an extension of the ezpad 6? meaning the firmware should be the same?

There's only one way to find out, you know. :smirk:

If you can get it to work with the same fw, you should definitely submit a patch or a request for a patch to linux-hid.

Will try on my ezpad 6 plus tonight with firmware of ezpad 6. If it works, I will tell you :)

If this zip and the driver contained in it works for you on Windows then you should extract the driver files located under hid /KMFD and especially the Firmware.sys file. Then follow the instructions on "extracting the firmware" (here https://github.com/onitake/gsl-firmware) on a linux machine. It is pracical to do this on a "live linux-usb stick" on the tablet, that way can test the fimware directely/ which parameters like resolution it needs. I can't do this for you as I'm not able to test if the extracted files work. I got it working for a ezpad 6 pro so if you have any further questions don´t hesitate to ask :) Greetings appswert
