Hello...

For the phone that I'm creating I'm interested in the driver that has been
used to enable the touchscreen on the pinephone. Which cpu does it use ?
Where can I get the source code from ? For my phone I'm using a 4 inches
display with touch function but it uses a different chipset,but If I can
know which chipset is used by the pinephone maybe I can buy a panel like
the one below that uses the same chipset :

Thanks.
