Send to USB attached touch screen monitor with xrandr
1
I have a project which involves buying a 5'' inch USB Touch Screen (from Raspberry Pi) to create an "info" screen: to control brightness, volume, current music, open shortcuts, etc...
I have the following questions:
- Does
xrandrdetect USB screens? - Does
xrandrwork with touch screens? - Since
xrandrwill see this as a multi-monitor setup, can I prevent the cursor from entering the second USB screen (but still being capable of touch controls)?
usb display xrandr touch
