I have tried a couple of things I found all over, but none have worked. Here is some information about the laptop.
product: HP ENVY x360 Convertible 15m-bq0xx product: 8311 product: AMD FX-9800P RADEON R7, 12 COMPUTE CORES 4C+8G
I'm running 17.10 and so far the touchsceen is the only thing not working.
xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ xwayland-pointer:13 id=6 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ xwayland-relative-pointer:13 id=7 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ xwayland-keyboard:13 id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
This is what I get running xinput, the odd thing is there use to be xwayland-touch:13 with an id of 9 but it is now gone. Rather than mess it up more I thought I would ask for help.
