hmmm...well it didn't work for with my hardware for some reason. I'll
post all that I know about my system and maybe someone will spot out the
problem...the following was all I could gather from the original WeTab
Os that came preinstalled:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf

ection "InputClass"
Identifier "default"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "calibration"
MatchProduct "eGalax Inc. USB TouchController"
Option "Calibration" "-5 4100 59 4100"
EndSection


lsusb gives the following output:

Note the 2nd record from the bottom: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0eef:72a1
D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd. Most posts mention that there should also
exist 'egalax...' at the end of the given string, not sure if that
matters.

Futhermore looking at xinput -list output we get the following:

-Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ eGalax Inc. USB TouchController id=11 [slave pointer (2)]

Ok let's what xorg has to say about all this:

finally for good measure I had a look at the loaded modules:

hid_egalax caught my eye and i ran modinfo

On Ubuntu the lsmod does not show hid_egalax being loaded. Also the Xorg.0.log on Ubuntu shows the touchscreen being identified as a Tablet.
