Touchscreen of Primebook C11 not recognized

Hello, I have a problem with my notebook as the touchscreen doesn't work and isn't listed in the output of

libinput list-devices

I read in the wiki to execcute

cat /dev/input/event?

for every event number and replacing the "?" with the number while touching the display to see if the output changes.
However, it didn't produce any results so I am thinking the touchscreen isn't supported by the kernel.

I found a thread on the subject in a german Ubuntu forum, and read about a solution installing a firmware from github.
But following the following installation instructions and rebooting changed nothing:

wget https://github.com/onitake/gsl-firmware/raw/master/firmware/linux/silead/gsl1680-trekstor-primebook-c13.fw
sudo mkdir /lib/firmware/silead
sudo cp gsl1680-trekstor-primebook-c13.fw /lib/firmware/silead/.

Does anyone know anoter solution?
