I got it working :) but touch curser dosnt follow touch - so calibration is bad.

How do I calibrate so touch actualy works ?

I do not have the official touchscreen, but I used these commands to calibrate my display:

sudo apt-get install evtest tslib libts-bin sudo TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb1 TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/touchscreen ts_calibrate

Didnt work for me on a pimusicbox installation :(

Now I try installing raspbian, and on that mopidy-touchscreen. This dosnt work either :( as mopidy-touchscreen says:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo pip --disable-pip-version-check install Modipy-touchscreen
Collecting Modipy-touchscreen
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement Modipy-touchscreen (from versions: )

Same issue here. How can I calibrate the original 7" Raspberry Pi touchscreen in Mopidy on PiMusicBox?

FYI: After installing evtest tslib libts-bin and trying your command above, I get: root@Music:Box~# TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb1 root@Music:Box:~# TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/touchscreen root@Music:Box:~# ts_calibrate ts_open: No such file or directory

According to this forum thread: https://discourse.mopidy.com/t/mopidy-touchscreen-with-7-original-pi-display/1442 It could be that the SDL version has to be downgraded to 1.2.0, unfortunately, I already had problems installing the SDL manually on the pi musicbox (see last post in this thread: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=82557 ).

I also noticed that the Pi crashes and restarts when choosing a song on a spotify playlist that contains non ascii characters in the title, such as Chinese characters.
