23.7 Legacy Series / Help with log spamming from touchscreen

« on: January 08, 2024, 01:35:30 am »

Hello OPNSense community!

I could really use some help! I am pulling my hair out!  :'(

I am trying to install OPNSense 23.7 for the first time on my old Acer Aspire V5 touchscreen laptop.

The problem I am having is endless terminal spam that I can not make stop!  :'(

See this video to see what I mean: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Lgi1wLgSquuqtiAj9

If you can't view the video, then the results look something like:

Code: [Select]

wmt0: <ELAN Touchscreen, class 0/0, rav 2.00/0.20, addr 11> on usbus0
wmt0: Multitouch touchscreen with 0 external buttons
wmt0: 10 contacts and [WH]. Report range [0:0] - [3312:1872]
wmt0: ugen0.5: <ELAN Touchscreen> at usbus0 (disconnected)
wmt0: at uhub0, port 6, addr 11 (disconnected)
wmt0: detached
ugen0.5: <ELAN Touchscreen> at usbus0
wmt0: on uhub0
...repeat (though (addr #) continues to increment

This continues to repeat about once every 2 seconds.

I tried commenting out some lines in /etc/syslog.conf and rebooting. The lines I commented out are:

Code: [Select]

# *.emerg                                                        *

And one other that was redirecting to /dev/console (I don't remember which, can not easily look).

That didn't help at all!

This endless spam is making it impossible for me to do anything! Please help!
