Hi all,

I am not sure if this is the proper place, but I'll just try and hope nobody is pissed or anyone points me in the right direction.
I have a touchscreen branded GeneralTouch with id 0dfc:0001 .
It seems to get only partly loaded, because I just get no screen input.
This is my Xorg log:
(II) config/udev: Adding input device Sensing Win7-TwoFinger (/dev/input/event5)
(**) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: Applying InputClass "evdev touchscreen catchall"
(**) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: always reports core events
(**) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: Device: "/dev/input/event5"
(II) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: Found absolute axes
(II) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: Found x and y absolute axes
(II) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: Found absolute touchscreen
(II) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: Configuring as touchscreen
(**) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Sensing Win7-TwoFinger" (type: TOUCHSCREEN)
(II) Sensing Win7-TwoFinger: initialized for absolute axes.
(II) config/udev: Adding input device Sensing Win7-TwoFinger (/dev/input/mouse1)
(II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)

I also would like to point you all to the xinput_calibrator deb (also source en Fedora rpm):
http://github.com/tias/xinput_calibrator/downloads

When I run that, no input is registered from touching the screen, but my mouse clicks from external mouse are.

Does anyone know what I can do to get it working?
I was thinking about the usb quircks, but I do not know what 0040 means, so I do not know how to get the whole string for my device.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
