Description

Hi, I'm using STF to control my Android device(it is a "thinclient", Android system, use VGA to display), get this error:

Research direction
Investigate why minitouch fails with 'Unable to find a suitable touch device' on this Android device. Check the touch plugin code at touch/index.js and possibly the minitouch repository. Determine if the device's touchscreen is not supported and explore potential fixes or workarounds.
