Raspberry 4 & Yocto & Xorg : tslib is flooding my console with "tslib: Selected device is not a Linux input event device" error

[Julien-Faure]

Hello all,

I use a Raspberry 4 with Raspberry touch screen (800x480), I have a custom os built from Yocto. I use the tslib driver to use my touch screen.

All works that i want it but, when I touch my screen, tslib: Selected device is not a Linux input event device error flood my console (serial debug console) and create perfomances drops.

Can you help me please ?

Thank you in advance.

My /etc/ts.conf file :

# Uncomment if you wish to use the linux input layer event interface
module_raw input

# Uncomment if you're using a Sharp Zaurus SL-5500/SL-5000d
# module_raw collie

I don't find the problem but I found an alternative :

I changed my DM, from LXDE to XFCE4.
