Hi Mustangguy
I too had ended up using the later part of your previous post to get touch calibration working for Kodi. For X things where pretty easy using xinput to apply calibration to X.
I did have a challenge finding a version of uinput_mapper that had a working touchscreen.py. I found this version to be valid, and applied the transform needed:
wget --no-check -O uimapper.tar.gz "https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B4lrG9aRe-8Malg2VkM0YW1CT28"
At the moment touch calibration is working, albeit very sluggish using uimapper (I assume mostly down to sluggish python).
With confluence skin for Kodi, it is working ok, but for CarPC.skin it is not quiet right. I expect I will need to fiddle with Kodi's keyboard/mouse mapping to make it behave acceptably.
Once I have the mapping sorted, I might rewrite the uimapper in C to hopefully improve the responsiveness.
