This repository contains a script to automaticly set up a touchscreen monitor in Ubuntu.

The main problem here is that when you just plug a monitor, if you have more than one, Ubuntu will make the hole screen area visible for touch, and not only your monitor.

This repository is based on this tutorial, so if you just need setup one time go there.

To use the automatic setup script add_monitor you will need to know the name of your monitor.

To do that use the following command:

xinput

and the port:

xrandr

• obs: if you change your connection port you will also have to change this paramter.

After that I recommend to add this script to the startup scripts.
