Hi
i have since i made this post tried the Debian hybrid again since there where voices made that it where better.
Got to insight that the module naming in debian is different, i should have checked better but "hid_multitouch" does exist and is loaded by typing
modprobe hid_multitouch
to check if the driver is getting access to the screen type dmesg
i then added the hid_multitouch to the file /etc/modules to get it to load at startup.
To get XINPUT-CALIBRATOR installed follow this guide:
wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Debian_Wheezy
after doing all this i got the touch to work somewhat, it feels inverted and buggy.
Probably since i have my screen 90degree from normal so it messes up some calibration.
All this worked on ubuntu 12.04 and the screen did not bug out on me.
will try getting it to run when i get time.
