The driver determines this packet length automatically.\n\n# Installation\nIf you are running a Debian-based distribution, run the following commands to install the driver using the provided script.\n\n```\nchmod +x install.sh\nsudo ./install.sh\n```\n\nIf you are using a different distribution, the installation script should work aside from the dependencies, which you'll need to install using your distribution's package manager:\npython, python-pip, pyudev, python-uinput\n\n# Calibration\nAfter the driver is in use, you can use the touchscreen after plugging it in. However, you should calibrate your touchscreen using the provided calibrate.sh script, which uses xinput_calibrator to perform the calibration.\n\n```\nchmod +x calibrate.sh\n./calibrate.sh\n```\n\nThe program will instruct you on how to make the calibration permanent after successful calibration.\n\n# Donations\nBTC: 13YppQBmB7ghsfuRHnrLhmPPj1BgbREA4B\n\n# License\nThis is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain.\n\nAnyone is free to copy, modify, publish, use, compile, sell, or\ndistribute this software, either in source code form or as a compiled\nbinary, for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial, and by any\nmeans.\n\nIn jurisdictions that recognize copyright laws, the author or authors\nof this software dedicate any and all copyright interest in the\nsoftware to the public domain.
