1. setup xfree driver
   
a. decompress xfhiddrv_drv.tar.gz
      #gzip -d xfhiddrv_drv.tar.gz
      #tar xvf xfhiddrv_drv.tar 
   
b. Copy xfhiddrv_drv.o to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/ or other place where 
      your X is installed.
      #cp   xfhiddrv_drv.o /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input
   
c. Add the following lines into XF86Config-4(maybe in /etc/X11)file.
      If your system will not have a mouse, then use "CorePointer" instead of
      "SendCoreEvents" in the "ServerLayout" section.  Set "ServerLayout"  section
      as the following.

#	InputDevice    "DevInputMice" "AlwaysCore"
        InputDevice    "HID TOUCH" "SendCoreEvents"


   
d. Add the a new "InputDevice" Section as the following.
      I. RS232 device:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "HID TOUCH"
        Driver      "xfhiddrv"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
