Using Touchscreen in porteuX

Post#1 by Kulle » 29 Dec 2024, 09:17

My HP Elitebook has a touchscreen.
Even at the lowest level (in configuration settings) in UEFI, I could and had to use the touchscreen function.

Basic touchscreen support is integrated into most modern Linux distributions as it is implemented in the Linux kernel.
Newer Debian versions include kernel modules for HID (Human Interface Device) by default, which automatically recognize many USB touchscreens.

Therefore, it should also be possible to use the touchscreen in Porteux.

So far, I have only found this in the forum:
Touchscreen support Porteus 4.0 Cinnamon

However, this hasn't helped me further.

Can someone help?
Thank you very much
