I think you're assuming :0 is on VT #7, but I don't think that's probably true. For experimentation, at least, use chvt. There's a working binary of that around somewhere, and it's certainly available in the chroot... And if the problem is that Xomap still doesn't work, it could be the best solution.

Update: the 'module_raw input' in /etc/ts.conf causes ts_test to hang the system.
Trying to find a module_raw that works...

While I am very interested to see if Darken can get two Xomap instances running with some kind of switching mechanism, I still haven't given up on Xephyr (it is just so slick to be able to give your secondary X-server an icon in the primary X-server)...
So, I want to try to get pressure working.
As far as I know, Xephyr is an xorg x-server, which means it should respect the xorg x-server configuration.
I found and installed the xserver-xorg-input-tslib package in Debian, and I added an input item to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:
I need to figure out:
I can't ask the bootable Debian guys for any of these config files, since you have to use the Xomap server.
Does anyone know where I can look at a working xorg xserver setup with a tslib touchscreen? I'm sure I'm just forgetting to add a section to the xorg.conf or a couple of X-related environment variables, or something straightforward like that.

Code:

Identifier "TSC2301 touchscreen"

Option "Device" "/dev/input/event3"

- how to properly set up the xorg.conf file to use the tslib touchscreen
- how to get Xephyr to respect the xorg.conf file

Xephyr is based on kdrive, not xfree/xorg... I don't think it can use xorg.conf.

I'm gonna put some effort into fiddling with multi-VC options, though I'm perfectly content using osso-statusbar-cpu to hop back and forth. (Actually, probably using osso-statusbar-cpu to hop forth, and fvwm2-buttons to hop back, to be pedantic.)
BTW, wondering about your status on several counts:
- What's your current view on on-screen keyboards? I think you'd said you were ditching matchbox; what are you planning for the replacement? (I'm getting a little irritated with it...)
- How close is Bundyo-Build to release? And how different is the Debian script? (I'm working on some changes to it, and was going to send it to you once I'm satisfied, but if you're near a new release, and that's changed much, I'd like to compare with it...)

Hmmm... That's too bad. It seems matchbox-keyboard only goes to display :0, no matter what. Which is pretty broken, if you're trying to use it with non-hildonized apps in :1, and leave :0 mainly stock. I was hoping you'd found something all-round better.
I'll be tossing a scriptful tarball up here momentarily...

Anyway, can Xephyr do something, what Xomap can't? From user point of view, it's absolutely same.
Who is developer of Xomap? I would like to find out, why I can't switch between DISPLAYs. Xomap should be based on kdrive, and Kdrive has this feature some time ago.
