Do you have a touch screen monitor


Has anyone had any luck with any touch screens in Linux, and if so which one and what distro?

I bought a touch screen monitor that I've been unable to get to work and I've tried 5 difference Distros. It works great in Windows XP. But with Linux the cursor goes in the wrong direction.

Anyway, I need a small touchscreen for a project I've been working on. One that works with preferably Mandriva, but any Linux distro will work for now.

If you have a touch screen that is working under Linux, please let me know which one it is and maybe a link to a site would be good.

And If anyone can give me any help with the one I have, I'm still working on that.

Thanks

Chances are that an up to date kernel, which you recompile would give you the best option.
