IBM TOuchScreen on RedHat Ent.
I have a point of sales unit that I am running the latest RedHat Enterprise on and am working on getting the touchscreen working. Currently I am using the mutouch driver which if I use the od -h -w10 </dev/ttyS6 command I can see under X that it is responding to touch, however I am not able to get it to move the cursor. here is a look at my xorg.conf file
