Touchscreen driver


Can anyone tell me where I can find touchscreen drivers for Mandriva. I'm thinking of purchasing a touchscreen such as the tm-868 but I want to be sure it will work on with Mandriva.

Thanks in advance.

I assume this is a Innovatek brand monitor?
Searching for a direct link to Innovatek found to be useless in google. But I only spent a about 5 minutes on that.

Anyways some quick google searching seems to refer this to a eeti company. Based this on this link I found. http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72903

Now this site http://www.eeti.com.tw/index_main.htm list many linux drivers based on distros.

The post also refers to being similiar to xenarc http://www.xenarc.com/product/700ts.html . On their site they list Linux drivers for their monitors.

Yes it is an Innovatek. Thanks very much for the information. I want to purchase one but am hesitating in case I can't get it to work with Linux

I understand that. If you go ahaed and give it a try or maybe try Xenarc ones let me know. One day I plan on setting up a cpu in the truck. Just never seem to have the time to do it.
