 Tslib downloads and source code are now being hosted at [[http://github.com/kergoth/tslib|github]].

+===== Tslib compilation on a host =====
+//Tested on a Ubuntu 12.04 host//
+Download the tslib sources:
+<code>
+git clone git://github.com/kergoth/tslib.git
+</code>
+Cross-compile them and install to default destinations as per tslib configuration:
+<code>
+./autogen.sh
+./configure --host=arm-linux-gnueabihf
+make && sudo make install
+</code>
+From now you can link your application or libraries agains the tslib but it is not possible to run ts_ - utilites like ts_calibrate because they are arm-binaries, not for x86 architecture.
+Default destinations are:
+  * include folder for gcc include path -I<path> is '/usr/local/include'
+  * lib folder for gcc link path -L<path> is '/usr/local/lib'
+===== Tslib compilation on a target =====
+This tutorial was tested on a Ubuntu ARM Core distribution installed on a Somiqboard.
+) download sources to a host as described in the previous paragraph and upload them to the target
+) compile sources by a native gcc compiler installed on the ARM Ubuntu distribution:
+<code>
+./autogen.sh
+./configure
+make && make install
+</code>
+You can now run ts_* utilities like ts_calibrate or ts_test.
+Default destinations are:
+  * ts.conf is in '/usr/local/etc'
+  * pointercal file is in '/usr/local/etc'
+If you want to use a calibrated touchscreen with your Qt application you need to specify where Tslib files are:
+<code>
+export QWS_MOUSE_PROTO=tslib:/dev/input/event0
+export TSLIB_CALIBFILE=/usr/local/etc/pointercal
+export TSLIB_CONFFILE=/usr/local/etc/ts.conf
+export TSLIB_PLUGINDIR=/usr/local/lib/ts
+</code>
