Ok, hooked the Pi to the touch screen monitor and connected the USB. Ran the lsusb command, and this is what came up:

Code:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp. 
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. 
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0eef:0001 D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd eGalax TouchScreen


Device 004 is the unifying receiver of my wireless Logitech K800 keyboard, which works nicely after adding a config file. The added benefit here is that I only use up one USB port for both keyboard and mouse.

Device 005 is the touch screen monitor. Does this string give you the info you need?
