      @Snille did you ask the manufacturer?

      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

        @strawberry-3.141 Nope, not yet, not sure who to ask really… It’s even kind of hard to find the brand itself…
        It’s this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32-points-32-Inch-IR-Multi-touch-overlay-kit-without-glass-for-Interactive-Table-Multi-Touch/1195149819.html
        The model number is at least: NECO-X
        Much more then that is hard to find… :)
        At least they have support for Linux as a HID compatible device (that should be enough I think).
        And it does work, just not in portrait… So, I’m thinking it got to be configurable on the “input-device” itself in rasbian… I just can’t find how. :)

        If you cant find it, make it and share it!

          @Snille they advertise For vertical and horizontal installation screen so ask the seller how you can change this

            @strawberry-3.141 Yes, I read that to, but it may also mean like vertical like a monitor (normal landscape) and horizontal like a table (but still in landscape). :)

              @Snille Sorry, but I hade a few problems in these weeks, so I didn’t had the chance to fix it…
              I asked the manufacturer (thank you @cowboysdude!) and they did send me a driver, but they’ve sent it with 3 extensions: .pkg, .exe, .apk and I’ve no idea how to open them… I have Debian 8 Jessie, by the way.
              Any suggestions? :anguished:

                Hm, these are drivers for Mac (pkg), Android (apk), Windows (exe)

                Maybe you can extract the pkg file and gather the driver files?

                  @AlessandroRa Hi! Unfortunately the manufacturer do not have any drivers for ARM.
                  I ended up with using it as a normal “HID” device. I have to rotate the frame manually with this command in SSH: DISPLAY=:0.0 xinput --set-prop "Multi touch Multi touch overlay device" "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" 0 1 0 -1 0 1 0 0 1
                  But I cant get it to stick after reboot. So, I have to do it after every boot when everything has started.
                  I did not get the xinnput_calibration values to stick either. I’m in Rasbian Jessie Lite.

                    Write it in an .sh file and have it run everytime you boot up ;)

                      @yawns I tried, there’s no way to open it…

                      @Snille I’ve installed xinput_calibrator and I’ve just tried to start the mirror with the command you wrote, but it still doesn’t recognise the xinput command… How did you do it?

                      @cowboysdude smart move!

                        @AlessandroRa Just install xinput sudo apt-get install xinput
                        Then you are good to go. :)
                        @cowboysdude I have to know when to start the actual xinput command, I have tried in the “startup” for LXDE, with CRON and in “openbox”:es “statup”. For some reason I cant get it to “take”. I have not made a .sh file, true. But where / when to execute it? :)
