Hello,
I've on problem:
I've to write a script, which changes the hostname (amongst others) of a system automatically.
So the script replaces the value in /etc/net.cfg. After that the system is rebooted.
The effect is, that the touchscreen of the system doesn't work anymore.
So I changed the script: Before rebooting, the file /etc/system/trap/calib.<OLD-HOSTNAME> (which
contains the calibration-settings of the touchscreen) is copied to /etc/system/trap/calib.<NEW-HOSTNAME>.
Sadly, this has no effect.
When I call "calib" (the tool which creates the .../calib.*-file with user-interaction) the
touchscreen works, but only until I reboot the system.
When I change the hostname with phlip everything works. But it must be done automatically.
Are there any further files, which has to be changed?
Or:
Is there another way to change the hostname? (Perhapps with ifconfig or something similar???)
Thanx a lot in advance. |

| Is the input.<HOSTNAME> file (located in /etc/system/trap) used when using the touchscreen (I suspect that it is)? |

Thanx for your answer.
I guess not. There is no input.<hostname>-file in my /etc/system/trap (in both cases: when it does and doesn't work.) |

| run "calib" and calibrate the touch screen and it will create a new calib.hostname file for your touchscreen driver |

| try "sync" before reboot, use "hostname" utility instead of rewrite net.cfg. |
