Re: [opensuse] Mounting root (/) read only with touchscreen

The fact that it didn't work with "ro" whereas I needed the root's
partition to be mounted as "ro". I just explained that it worked with "rw"
is to elaborate you guys that the driver is actually working. But not if
it's mounted with "ro". Sorry for the confusion. I just didn't have enough
experience with Linux in general.
BTW, I've looked at the file "/var/log/boot.msg". It said that the driver
needed to change some files in "/etc/X11/" and in
"/usr/src/linux/include/asm". So, I made a tarball of the folders
"/etc/X11/" and "/usr/src/linux/include/asm" and do the same thing to
them like "/var" and "/tmp" (extracting them to "/dev/shm" and linked
"/dev/shm/X11" & "/dev/shm/asm" to "/etc/X11" &
"/usr/src/linux/include/asm"). It worked now. Well at least so far it
worked.
