Ubuntu

touch screen not working

Asked by Patrick M

I recently bought my first ever brand new laptop. Previously I had old, hand me downs that I loaded Ubuntu into. been using Ubuntu since 8.04.
My new HP Pavillion 15-eg has a touch screen. I'd like to get that feature working with Ubuntu 22.04. The eGalax touchscreen has supposedly been supported since 14.04, but I cannot find anything in the answers that applies to my machine.
I did find a tarball, but I'm not good at compiling from .tar, don't know if it is even the right one, and also the threads do not recommend going that route.
I have a feeling the package is here, I just need to figure out how to make it work?

First disable wayland by logging out. There is a gear on the right side of the login page.
Click it and select X11, then log in. Touchscreen does not work on wayland just X-11.

I tried that, with and without restarting no difference. I am a little uneasy about messing around in the config files...

I went ahead and edited the .conf file, uncommented and made sure it was set to "false". still no touch screen after restart

Don't mess with the config.
Just change to X-11

I tired that, I think it saved, because the file now says enable wayland False.
Still no touch function, though

To install the package: -> Ubuntu software -> Calibrate Touchscreen -> Install
It has the Wayland driver and works on X-11
