As far as I remember you are using an elder release. To be honest: I
don't know if and what oe-core suggests ifo nput driver for elder
environments.

In my environment I do simply nothing but follow oe-core with
xf86-input-libinput recommendation and whatever I have connected so
far by USB (mouse/touchscreen/keyboard) it simply worked.
