Summary0001525: Request: kmod package for usbtouchscreen.ko
DescriptionHi,

I have a Microtouch touchscreen that is supported by the usbtouchscreen.ko kernel module. Unfortunately, usbtouchscreen is not enabled in the EL8 kernel by Red Hat.

I noticed the kernel is available in the elrepo kernel-lt, but I would very much prefer to keep running the default EL8 kernel.
TagsNo tags attached.

The requested kmod is now available:

https://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el8/x86_64/RPMS/kmod-usbtouchscreen-0.0-1.el8_10.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

If you have the elrepo repository enabled, you can install it by running:

# dnf install kmod-usbtouchscreen

Your feedback appreciated.
