The elo daemon constantly hung and had to be restarted. The whole configuration was really silly (putting stuff into /etc/opt, are you kidding me?). I first attempted to directly use them and found them to be a complete disaster. Â Plugging in the monitor, it is recognized as a 5020 Surface Capacitive:ġ9746:Aug 3 02:51:13 localhost kernel: usb 2-1: Product: Elo TouchSystems Surface Capacitive 5020ġ9747:Aug 3 02:51:13 localhost kernel: usb 2-1: Manufacturer: Elo TouchSystemsġ9750:Aug 3 02:51:13 localhost kernel: input: Elo TouchSystems Elo TouchSystems Surface Capacitive 5020 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:1.0/input/input7ġ9751:Aug 3 02:51:13 localhost kernel: generic-usb 0003:04E7:0042.0003: input,hidraw2: USB HID v1.11 Pointer on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input0ĮLO provides some generic drivers for this device. Â I have successfully gotten the touchscreen monitor to work under linux (specifically Scientific 6.x) using USB (I haven’t tried the serial interface).

I recently purchased an ELO 1537L 15-inch open-frame touchmonitor for a project I am doing at work. This also fixes issues if the touchscreen’s usb cable is hotplugged while X is already running.

*Edit* I have updated this to no longer require you to edit nf.

No elo touchscreen detected
