I followed the install tutorial on the wiki and everything works except the actual touch aspect of it. at this point it is basically just a small monitor. the touch screen does work on the provided image so the actual screen is not the issue. i do not want to use the provided image.

Did you tried to set a udev rule for the touchscreen is always referenced as /dev/input/touchscreen ? In that case, if you type in your console : cat /dev/input/touchscreen and touch your touchscreen, some chars must be displayed.

If yes, your touchscreen is installed, but your system (X, console ?) might have not being told to use it.
