I am using the MERIDOC Kernel and Xhpc from the same ftp site.
But..
The touch screen doesn't work for me, I get the cursor but no response when
I touch the screen.
xev reports no event.
Is there a config file or something that I have missed.?

Ya, I noticed this. I wasn't sure of the cause, and I forgot about it
until you mentioned it. One or both of the following things "cured" it:
1) Make sure you start the X server in the following way:
xinit -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0
You can put any additional arguments for the X server after the "0", but
make completely sure you use the full path to the X server. You may also
specifiy an alternative ".xinitrc" file after xinit, but before the '--'.
2) The permisisons on the /dev/ws* devices:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 73, 1 Aug 10 12:17 wskbd
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 61, 0 Aug 10 12:17 wskbd0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 61, 1 Aug 10 12:17 wskbd1
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 61, 2 Aug 10 12:17 wskbd2
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 61, 3 Aug 10 12:17 wskbd3
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 73, 0 Aug 10 12:17 wsmouse
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 62, 0 Aug 10 12:17 wsmouse0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 62, 1 Aug 10 12:17 wsmouse1
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 62, 2 Aug 10 12:17 wsmouse2
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 62, 3 Aug 10 12:17 wsmouse3
I don't usually run things as root, so at one point I changed the
permissions to be as the above shows.
Sorry I forgot to mention this before...
