Hi
Is a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf file present? I’m assuming this is a touchscreen device? If it’s not present it’s likely lurking in the package you installed and just needs to be copied to the above location and configured as required. If it is present, can you post the contents.

thanks for replying. No file is present /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf

Hi
Did you install the driver from source, or is there a xf86-input-evdev package available (11 SP1 is so old…)?
