    Touch Screen not working Lenovo Flex 5, Ubuntu Studio 20.04?

    I'm running Ubuntu Studio 20.04 on a Lenovo Flex 5-1570 and everything is working fine except for the touch screen and accelerometer. I know the accelerometer probably won't work but thats not a big issue, but it was my understanding that the touch screen would work fine.

    I've tried the linux wacom project drivers and it didn't work.

    I'm also open to trying different desktop environments if it would help. XFCE isn't the best for touch interface.

    Ubuntu Studio doesn't have a snapstore to uninstall and reinstall.
