There is the wacom driver (x11-drivers/xf86-input-wacom); also a generic driver that's not even in the ports [1] and may or may not work. With that said, x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev was ported recently, and combined with multimedia/webcamd and a patch to xorg-server over at [2] this should (hopefully) provide the full support to whatever touchscreens Linux suports. You can thank Hans Petter Selasky for this work. Unfortunately our x11@ team has been slow in committing these changes, and the PR at [2] has been lingering for 9 months now. You'll need to apply the patch from that PR manually, if you want to have it working. [1] http://tx97.net/xf86-input-usbhid/ [2] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196678
