Touchscreen is not working

Hi, currently trying to get linux to work on my tablet(it has intel 64bit cpu). Touchscreen is the only thing, where I have zero progress .
I have read https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Touchscreen and several other pages, tried installing  xf86-input-evdev, xf86-input-libinput, xf86-input-elographics to no effect.
The screen is not showing on `xinput` list(or I can't see it):

⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]

    ↳ COMPANY  USB Device  Keyboard             id=18   [slave  keyboard (3)]

I don't think it is any of this things (output of `lsusb`)

It seems like all of the guides I can find assume that touchscreen is listed in one of the lists above, so I'm not sure what to do next.

I installed Xserver with kde plasma on top. My device is DIGMA EVE 10 C401T. It had windows 10 preinstalled, where touchscreen worked perfectly. I have found an archive with DIGMA's drivers for this machine, but they are only available on windows and I suppose that I can't get anything useful out of them

What can I do now to get touchscreen working?
