I am having problems getting a touch screen working on Fedora 18. I need 
to execute the following command to enable the device:

echo -n "serio_raw" > /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/drvctl

And receive:

-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

I also tried:

echo $'serio_raw' > /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/drvctl

with the same result. Some posts I found state that that file is no 
longer writable in current versions of linux. Any suggestions?

Thanks
