Touchscreen gets lost after calibrating with xinput_calibrator #70

Description

@ajstadlin

Platform: Raspberry Pi Zero, Raspbian Jessie Lite, X11-core and LDXE-core.

Planar PT1701MU touchscreen with USB.

When I boot up, the cursor moves around when I touch the screen, but does not really work.

When I run xinput_calibrator, the program lets me touch the 4 calibration points OK, which leads me to believe 2 things: 1) The touch screen hardware works, and 2) It is possible to calibrate the touchscreen to work in my platform.

However, when I am done, the program closes OK and provides instructions for making the calibration permanent. The touchscreen no longer works after the xinput_calibrator is run until I reboot.

I would like to try to use the settings returned by xinput_calibrator, however, I cannot figure out where to copy the settings to in Raspbian Jessie Lite.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
