Yes, only singletouch on my. It'd be great if we could investigate this issues on this tablet because everything else is working great!

Re: Sailfish OS on Intel SoC-based tablets
 

Not easy. The problem is missing kernel sources. Even though device is similar, no idea what is different in terms of drivers. Kernel bits need to be reverse-engineered, and as tortoisedoc tried on Teclast X98 Kindow, it can be pretty difficult.

Regarding Onda V820W V3, I'm currently trying to fix OTA. The idea is to properly repackage modified files, and see if there is a way to override some Jolla Tablet packages with Onda-specific adaptation during update.

Touch screen is a bigger problem, it seems. Currently open-source https://github.com/onitake/gslx680-acpi driver is used. It reports touch events as-is, without any software interpolation (which in theory should be the task for userspace). However, GSL1680 touch panel hardware is not very precise, so one touch gets reported as multiple touches with slighly different coordinates every time driver gets events from hardware.

The vendor driver for GSL1680 is more complicated, and while there is some source code, it won't work without changes for our device (currently it will crash the kernel). I'll see if I can do something about it, but no promises.

Re: Sailfish OS on Intel SoC-based tablets
 

The other day I saw this tablet from RCA at Walmart for $34.00. Any thoughts on it running Sailfish?

Chipset Model Number Intel SoFia 3GR 1.2Ghz Quad Core processor.

Doing a search for the specs on this tablet some sites claim it has a MT 8127 Quad core processor which is an Arm 7 processor. So I am not real sure if it is x86 or ARM?

Did a quick search and found out that at least earlier versions had bootloader locked. Also, even though RCA seems to be based in USA, I couldn't find kernel sources, which is GPL violation (Chinese companies usually don't care though).

I was surfing internet and found Ubislate i3G7 tablet with same specs and it has Intel x86 processor, hope it could run SFOS or native linux without android.

Re: Sailfish OS on Intel SoC-based tablets
 

The same problems as with the tablet above.

In the meanwhile, I was checking what cheap Intel tablets have their kernel source code available and found this: https://github.com/bq/edison-3-mini. Pretty nice of BQ not only to provide source code, but also scripts for compilation. Porting Sailfish OS to it should be easy, yet, untortunately, BQ Edison 3 Mini is not available outside Spain.

Re: Sailfish OS on Intel SoC-based tablets
 

Thank you for the link and all thoughts on this device. And I will keep my eyes on the forums as to what works with Sailfish.

Is this the same device?
