Egalax still tries to reuse the product id 0001 for *many* different touchscreens. Some are multitouch, some are not. With all this mess, it is impossible to figure out which way to go and write something upstream about it :( Anyway, given your hid outputs, if you run the following command before plugging your touchscreen (at boot is a good idea), you should be fine: # echo 3 0eef 0001 16 > /sys/bus/hid/drivers/hid-multitouch/new_id *BUT* the outputs show only _one_ touch when you said you made 2. I must also say that this device presents itself as a Win8 certified one whereas it is clearly not following the spec. So my best advice would be to send it back to the store, and buy another one :( > Not sure if this is significant, but when it was asking for the hidraw device it only listed one device for the touchscreen; it did not have a second "Pen" device as exists at the /dev/input/eventN level. > Yeah, that's expected. The second input node is created by looking at the report descriptors and the splitting is done in hid-multitouch.
