Touchscreen adventures II

I got a mail from a guy from www.aurora-kontakt.nl, they are in stock! There is only one problem:

This one costs 32.95 euro's

And this one is even pricier: 89,95 euro!

For both of them goes that i also will have to buy a DVI-DVI cable, let's check the pricewatch to see. So about 9 to 10 euros, hmm, next month maybe..:)

So the status of this project is changed to 'waiting for funds to free up' and 'let's see if we can arrange this an other way' for now.

ToDoList for the project:

- Source DVI <-> DFP-20
- Serial connector (got it)
- Figure out how configfile for X is made
- Make a configfile for X for touchscreen and LCD
-etc.

Resource list for the project:
