Re: Mint and CF-19

O.K. Touch 101 is indicated. And this is for MINT.
IGNORE file not found errors for now.
X11 is a capital X
We are removing previous 99-calibration.conf files because I am seeing a out of range situation....it happens every time you switch from touch to tablet in the bios....and yes does it on W7 so therefore W10 also. (THIS IS NOT TO FIX THAT (WINDOWS)
REBOOT
Assuming updates are installed then install xinput-calibrate from Synaptics package manager.
Run calibration. You should be a lot closer.
Run calibration again.....it should be nearly correct.
That's right I run it twice for finer adjustment.
Then save the calibration settings like this.
Copy the settings calibration wrote in the terminal.
Open a second terminal and:
sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf
PASTE the settings that you copied. (from the other terminal)(both terminals are open)
ctrl x
answer yes
hit enter to save.
What we did.
Deleted previous calibration settings and their files (if any).
Installed xinput-calibrate
Ran calibration twice.
Saved the second set to /usr/share/X11 etc.
So mess with this for a while and call for help if needed. This information is all over the Linux forum here. (TBT) Maybe not all that clear 'cause I wrote it.
This missive was interrupted by feeding time for the animals....so is probably a bit erratic.
Hey! The video was very helpful. Thanks.
