Hey there,
I tried to run xinput_calibrator to set up my external monitor (w/ touchscreen) in Manjaro without any luck. Sadly it was working fine in PopOS or Mint.
I also tried to follow this guide but get stuck when running verbose mode as I don’t get any debug line.
Here is my inxi:

Oddly, when running xinput_calibrator --list it actually shows two devices:
Device "Silicon Works Multi-touch SW4101C Mouse" id=9
Device "Silicon Works Multi-touch SW4101C" id=19
The first (id=9) shows up in my input devices in system settings as game controller 
Obviously I tried to run the calibrator for both without luck.
The touch function actually works and even the scrolling. It’s quite precise if I touch the bottom left angle of the display, as I get towards the center it starts messing up and if I touch the center it basically points to the top right corner of the display.
What should I do to get it working?
