After removing "Elan eKTH I2C touchscreen" permanently build into the kernel, it works.

I guess the drivers from package xserver-xorg-input-libinput are used now. (don't know how to find out exactly)

Kernel driver "Device Drivers -> Input device support -> Touchscreens -> Elan eKTH I2C touchscreen" should be build as module and not build permanent into the kernel. (or the driver should be fixed...)
