I'm trying to get a touch screen working with Ubuntu 10.04LTS (64bit)
-it is a serial touchsceen, connected at /dev/ttyS0 ,i know that works because I get garbage in the terminal when I enable it.
-before the screen used a 3m driver (I believe) in XP.

My knowledge of Linux is passive so I generally pick up something when I need it. To get this working I came accross a lot of tutorials (a lot outdated a bit), I'm still at a loss to get this work.

  • I'm not sure where to put linux drivers (/usr/ or /dev/?) most tutorials kind of skip over that part.

  • I have tried editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf unsuccessfully. I'm not sure what the syntax for that is supposed to be.

Thank You
