One thing i am good with is building kernels so working on the drivers want be to hard on me. so i need to edit the touchscreen lib files on the system side of things. then the drivers on the kernel level? BTW i do intend to give full credit were it belongs. Ive never think of kanging as stealing..

no need to touch the libs, look in the defconfig for the touchscreen used, and you can look for a thread on XDA on the edits, or even check my github for the commits on my cm9 esteem kernel.

a dirty port fits that description.

A real port, that being one built from src, requires config files edited for the intended device, the correct props pulled from the device, and it all massaged n buttered up to work correctly with each other. This is still quite a under taken even if using a kanged repo as a base. Not to mention there is no getting around the kernel edits/hacks. IMO almost anyone can do a dirty port if they put the time into it, but it takes a lil skill and knowledge to build from src. ;)

yea the flciker is prolly due to the display drivers (adreno I believe) and the touchscreen drivers not been edited. Sounds like you have touchscreen_legacy (which it needs to be) set tho hence it acting like a mouse pointer atm.

I looked online and saw adreno200 pics drivers in the form of lib files on xda. I added them to the build and it broke the screen all together.

Calm down there buddy, If you read, then you would know that there's still a flicker problem. So no, It's not fully working, but Bo's going to put up an Alpha that we can play with soon.
