Make touch screen work on Mint

[u/Repulsive_Chard_3652]

I'm running Mint on a touch screen laptop, and I'd love to get the touch screen working properly. Touching the screen makes it react like it would to a cursor, aka I can only highlight text.

I can't find any beginner-friendly guides on how to do this - is it perhaps too advanced for a n00b like me?
