How to install Touchscreen Driver on Laptop/Tablet (Tutorial)

**Introduction:** Hello, my name is Eitan. I am new to linux but i am learning rapidly.I want to contribute to the community by writing a tutorials for things that might sound easy and unnecessary but for some it might help a lot. if you see that i wrote something wrong please be sure that your write in the comments so i will fix myself.

(Tested on Voyo Vbook A1 with Ubuntu 18.04.3)

Step 1 checking if the firmware is already available: Go to Terminal and login as root Sudo su
and check for firmware modprobe silead
if nothing happened you don't have the driver, if it shows you the driver is available skip Step 2.

Step 2 Installing the firmware: In Terminal write dmesg
and than go to Silead to check what is the driver's name (most of the time it's mssl1680), Now go to this [Git](https://github.com/onitake/gsl-firmware) and look for your Laptop/Tablet and click on the website in the firmware column, than download the firmware (Example (FileName).fw) and put it in /lib/firmware/silead (if the folder silead don't exist than create it. you may need sudo privileges to put the file there) and rename the file as was shown in Dmesg (usually mssl1680.fw).

Step 3 Downloading xinput input evdev and calibrator:

sudo apt-get install xinput-calibrator sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evdev

(if evdev doesn't work download from [here](https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/download))

Step 4: Reboot

Step 5: In terminal write xinput-calibrator
and click on the dots as it asks you. make sure the folder

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

is created (create it if not) and add the file

99-calibration.conf

and write the results of the calibrator. For example:

Section "InputClass" Identifier "calibration" MatchProduct "silead_ts" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event14" Option "MinX" "31405" Option "MaxX" "-20" Option "MinY" "23984" Option "MaxY" "76" Option "SwapXY" "0" # unless it was already set to 1 Option "InvertX" "0" # unless it was already set Option "InvertY" "0" # unless it was already set EndSection

Step 6: Reboot

Step 7 Finding the matrix of your Screen: In terminal write

xinput list-props silead_ts

and you will see libinput calibration martix (don't mistake for the same one with default in the end)

Step 8: Add the following line in

/etc/X11/xinit/xinputrc

xinput --set-prop 10 "libinput Calibration Matrix" (with your paramaters)
for example

xinput --set-prop 10 "libinput Calibration Matrix" -2.0882497963235185, 0.0, 1.001125569612532, 0.0, -2.6999736330699893, 1.006245056200623, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0,

Step 9: Reboot
Step 10: Congratulations Enjoy

Simple vid in response to a prior post (which was sadly removed). I do feel like there are other things to be addressed in the transition for users of various capabilities and niches. Thoughts or additional feedback?

The necessity of Linux on desktop given cloud computing?

I'm honestly wondering, is Linux on desktop really necessary? A lot of things run online like Facebook, email, and so on.

Kiss Linux, a new independent distribution

You build your installation from text (source) like Gentoo, you choose your kernel from linux.org, init is done through busybox (your own noscripts, or runit, or sysvinit noscripts additionally supported), the C library is MUSL

Yes there is X and there is Firefox, but you can build your own software in a simple, fast, secure environment.
Not for linux newcomers and those unfamiliar with how a Gentoo or Crux installation is done.

Re-calculating BPM for mp3 files

Hi all, I have a huge collection of mp3 files, and I'd like to calculate/re-calculate and store the BPM (Beats Per Minute) values for all the mp3 files. Is there a linux/python noscript that can enable me to do so easily? I was earlier using a Windows program (booting into Windows) to do this, but now I'm looking for something (preferably but not necessarily with GUI) to work on Ubuntu. Any pointers will be appreciated.
