My question is mainly in which direction I should look. Google wasn't particularly helpful, as most hits point to Ubuntu (no, I don't want to switch to Ubuntu). The recommended solution there seems to be either Unity, or a tool called touchegg, which doesn't appear to exist in Debian, nor seems someone interested in it. The only time someone asked here about it doesn't have a solution or useful pointer.
You have to give the Devil his due. Unity might be the only Linux Desktop that lends itself to touch interface. If you have the harddrive space, maybe create another partition and install Ubuntu/Unity. Let us know what happens, as touch screens are the next thing. Ric
