Hi,

I have bought a used touchscreen monitor.

The label says it is a Coretronic PV755AAT-R.

The TFT screen connects via a VGA port, the touchscreen part connects via serial port.

Internally, the Coretronic might consist of the TFT screen (unknown manufacturer) and the touchscreen could be made by Fujitsu. I got a driver CD for Windows that states it is a Fujitsu 7wire serial device.

I could make the TFT screen work, which was no problem. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to setup and install and calibrate the touchscreen.

- Which Xserver driver will I need to install?
- How do I actually know the touchscreen is doing at least something (until I know how to configure it)?
- I have found inputattach, but I do not know which driver to use for it, and also I have no idea where to find its config file on my system.

What can I do? I really need a foolproof step-by-step tutorial Sad

Thanks for your help in advance and many regards,
Crypto.

What is the output of
      Code:
lsusb
lsmod | grep hid
These commands will show what the kernel and USB subsystem know about that TFT and what modules are loaded for human input devices
