Touch screen configuration has nothing whatever to do with RD.  It is a purely 
system-level function.

FWIW, I have never in +10 years been able to get the (closed-source) 
calibration software provided by ELO to work on Linux.  Unfortunately, there 
are no good alternatives on BA1/CentOS 5 of which I’m aware.  BA2/CentOS 6 is a 
different story, where xinput_calibrator(1) has worked well with all ELO 
USB-based touch screens I’ve tested.

Cheers!
