Years ago I had a Palm Pilot, and its touch screen required that you first calibrate it before using it. To calibrate it, in the settings a program would be started, and you would click with your stylus in the center of a target at several places on the screen and it would end up clicking where you placed your stylus.



Do old Linux PC touch screens work in a similar manner to calibrate them? If so, what command do I need to run in RedHat Linux to calibrate the touch screen?

  • I didn't know there were old Linux touch screens... Are you having issues with a screen that appears uncalibrated? What is the hardware and what RedHat Linux release are you running?
