I'm struggling to get a touchscreen to function with linuxcnc also. It's an elo touchscreen EL1519l, I'm runing Debian Wheezy.
if i run lsusb from terminal I can see the device listed device003 elo TouchSystems
it doesn't show in xinput though.
the_muck what was your solution in the end? did you install the mint distro, was that what got you up and running?
Cheers,
Steve
