I asked the submitter and authors of the new ft6236 driver to test there devices with the edt-ft5x06 driver instead, but I got no reply. January 26th 2016 I asked the submitter and authors of the new ft6236 driver to test with the edt-ft5x06 driver again, but again got no reply. Given the lack of response from the submitter / authors of the ft6236 driver I believe it is best to just remove it. I've double checked and the edt-ft5x06 driver is 100% compatible both wrt wire protocol usage, as wrt to the reset gpio usage (and the gpio name in dt). Regards, Hans
