[SOLVED] Touchscreen goes black after touching it

#1 Post by Josh66 »

My screen has been intermittently going blank for about a second at seemingly random times. I've just noticed that if I touch it (it's a touchscreen), it does it every time. So I guess the times it's done it without touching it, there was probably just something on my monitor.

Any ideas how to fix it, or just disable the touchscreen? I don't really care about being able to use it as a touchscreen (and have fingerprints all over it?!), but I don't see an option anywhere in the menus to turn it off.

I can't find much of anything helpful online (most of the search results I get are for a similar but different problem, flickering screen, etc).

Any time I touch the screen, the cursor moves to the spot I touched, the screen goes black, screen comes back on after ~1 second.

You do realize monitor and touchscreen are separate devices despite they are built together? How is your touchscreen connected, USB?

I'm not sure exactly which device is the touchscreen. I think it has to be either the Elan or Chicony device...

I think Chicony usually makes webcams, so I'd first try the other one. :)

Any input device can be set to be ignored in Xorg configuration. Can't tell it from memory, but once I disabled touchpad for good this way. Maybe a little search: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=disable+input ... 23__&ia=qa

Good luck.

Yup, I think you're right. I just noticed "camera sensor" under terminal type for the Chicony device.

I'll see what I can do about disabling the touchscreen.

I've noticed a few other things: I get none of this touchscreen behavior when starting an Xfce session, or while using a GParted Live disc, or a Debian Live disk - the touchscreen works normally.

OK, so I purged gnome-session, autocleaned & autoremoved, then reinstalled gnome-session. That fixed it.
