.Sh NAME
.Nm uep
.Nd eGalax touchscreen driver
.Sh SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
your kernel configuration file:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
.Cd "device uep"
.Cd "device usb"
.Ed
.Pp
Alternatively, to load the driver as a
module at boot time, place the following line in
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
uep_load="YES"
.Ed
.Pp
To compile this driver with evdev support enabled, place the
following lines into the kernel configuration file:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
.Cd "options EVDEV_SUPPORT"
.Cd "device evdev"
.Ed
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides support for the eGalax onscreen touch panels.
.Pp
The driver is a stub.
It just probes and attaches to USB device, creates a device entry
and feeds reassembled packets from the hardware to it.
Depending on compile-time kernel options it supports either native
or evdev operation modes.

To get the mouse working in
.Xr X 7
in native mode, install
.Pa ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-egalax .
.Pp
To get the mouse working in
.Xr X 7
in evdev mode, install
.Pa ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev .
.Sh FILES
.Nm
creates a blocking pseudo-device file,
.Pa /dev/uep0
in native mode or
.Pa /dev/input/eventN
in evdev mode.
