Hello,
I've got a medion MD20165 20" touch screen.
I've installed Ubuntu Server 11.10 on my pc,
also i've installed xdm and lxde.
It's nice and light,
i'm using an old pc with a pIII and 256 mb ram.
Thanks to the combi of the lightweight ubuntu and the light lxde, it's works nice and fast!
If i use Standard Ubuntu it's slower than sirup.
(Takes 5 min to boot, 2 min for unity (of gnome) to respond to anything (i suspect because they fill my mem causing heave swap usage)).
With this setup it works nice and fast. (boot times are under 2 min, response almost direct, 2-3 ms time but that's okay)
Anyway...
My touchscreen worked directly (i plugged in the usb and touched the screen and the mouse went directly to my finger!)
But when connected to windows (different pc...) i can also scroll by swiping my finger up or down.
Also if i held my finger (or stylus) on the screen for 5 secs it did a right click.
These are the 2 things i'm really missing...
Everything else is working fine.
I didn't have to do any calibration (never did, the factory did that for me, saves me a headache!)
I only had to do an automatic adjustment (the screen was offset to the right and top).
How can i fix this?

If i can get this working, i'll have a great pc.
