use "xinput list" to find the string to use for the "matchproduct" entry.



OK, will just have a bite and then I go down and see what I find. Logging on shortly from my workshop.

And try the file my way, with
Option "Calibration" "1565 265 259 1590"
All on one line (because that definitely works for me)

sudo apt-get install xinput

Also "Command not found" often means "You don't have the privileges to run this command" and the command is found with "sudo"

"eGalax" might be worth a try as the identifier.
(just maybe punctuation upsets the match?)

Makes no difference, no new numbers will stick so there must be another file that overrides what ever I input in xorg.conf.

The question is where ;)
