I have not found anything so far, but might have found something for the similar Dell SX2210T monitor. Drivers for the Dell and various others are available from http://touch-base.com/download.asp they don't however list anything that looks like HP.


Just in-case the HP touch controller shows under a different name you should try the following.


  1. Plug the screen in to a Mac including any USB cable
  2. Open System Profiler on the Mac and look under USB devices
  3. See if there is a USB device that looks like a touch screen entry then try looking that up on the Touch-Base website


The only info I found about the HP touch screen suggested it was recognised by Mac OS X Snow Leopard at least, and presses where also recognised but that the calibration was wrong so that touches registered in totally the wrong places.


UPDATE:

I found some information on the Touch-Base website that suggests the controller for the HP L2105tm is actually a Quanta Computer controller and that is listed on the Touch-Base website list. (You don't list the model number so I have assumed that one however the HP 2310Ti uses the same controller, the 4200tm uses the iNexio controller.)


Please note that I cannot see any information on the Touch-Base website as to whether their Mac drivers are Lion compatible but I would expect they would work with Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).


Note: The HP screens only support two touches at a time so that enables pinch and stretch for example but they are not full-blown multi-touch screens. The Dell SX2210T is a multi-touch screen.

Hey Asier,


Could you send me the driver to? or let me know where I can find it?

I have searched the whole day now and still can't find it:(


I would be Very Very thankfull!


Greetz,

If you look at my early post above, you will see I listed a website where you can download drivers for various makes of Touchscreen monitor including HP. You need to look yourself because there are different drivers for different model HP screens.


Note: The HP screens only support two-finger operations, they cannot do three+ finger gestures unlike some other makes. This is also detailed on the website.
