I have a Dell Inspiron 13 5378 2 in 1 laptop (i5-7200u, ~2017). Originally, it ran Windows 10 and the touch screen worked like a charm. Now, after many years without regular use, a fresh install of Arch Linux, and a new generic battery, this touch screen no longer functions. It may be worth noting that the BIOS claims that some screens are touch screen active (for things like diagnostics). This is the output of dmesg | grep -i touch.

This raydium touch system appears under lsusb. Interestingly enough, the gyro sensors rotate my screen properly and the keyboard turns off (as it should) when the laptop is folded. I have installed plenty of touch screen drivers like xf86-input-evdev, libinput, etc. Using GNOME on XORG does not work. What should I do? Edit 1: This is the output of xinput list
