Well, to get the touch screen working on my surface pro 6 in addition to the
surface-kernel you need iptsd enabled and libwacom-surface installed. I'm
wondering if kwin isn't recognizing the touch input because it's using the
wacom driver? Maliit still won't activate and I've fully updated the all the
software. I would love to find a way to get this working, the "solution" in the
linux-surface community is to install Gnome... Kinda defeats why I chose KDE...
