Yes, Mr Hutterer's "some device name" suggestion doesn't work since IIUC
my user's device comes up twice:
"""
Also using xinput with device name method wouldn't work either because
there are 2 same eGalax touchscreen devices listed from xinput, so it
couldn't tell which one to use, the only unique identification between
the
two is the device ID."""
Sorry, I still don't quite understand how to map /dev/input/event* via
udevadm. Do you have a worked example, perhaps with systemd I could peer
at?
