xf86-input-evdev not working with touch device with MT only axes

[Pasrshuram Thombare]

No I am on linux (3.10). I think, need to change touchscreen driver to support ABS_X & ABS_Y. Will give try and update findings.

Thanks for your help.

it means your kernel driver isn't adhering to the evdev protocol, so you're
