How to setup a wacom tablet and/or a touchscreen in a two monitors configuration?

Hello,

 

I don't know if this problem can be solved within KDE or if it must be solved somewhere in xorg configuration. If anyone can give me directions on what exactly should I look for, I will be grateful.

I use two monitors with 1920x1080 resolution, one above the other, and the desktop is extended across them. My desktop, therefore, has a 1920x2160 resolution.

The lower monitor has a touchscreen and the upper monitor has not. However, right now I'm not able to use the touchscreen properly because X interprets the touches as if the touchscreen area was over both monitors. For example, if I touch the middle of the lower monitor (which should be around coordinate [960,1620]), X thinks I've clicked the middle of the entire desktop (around coordinate [960,1080], i.e., the mouse cursor goes to the top of the lower monitor / bottom of the upper monitor). If I touch the top of the lower monitor, the top of the desktop is clicked insted (i.e., the top of the upper monitor).

How can I configure KDE or X so they know that the touchscreen covers only the lower monitor?

 

Similar problem occurs with a wacom digitizing tablet. I would like the tablet area would correspond to just one of the monitors, not the entire desktop. How can I setup this?

 

Thanks,

 

Marcelo
