From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Try KDE Neon, it bundles Plasma that has nice touchscreen support and has a virtual keyboard installed that just needs to be enabled, if even necessary.
I second Plasma as a touch desktop. Neon is pretty great, but I'm not a huge fan of the LTS base + bleeding edge DE combo. I'd personally recommend either Fedora KDE for frequent updates overall, or Kubuntu LTS for general stabilty.
I suggested Neon due to its bundle with a onscreen keyboard. Fedora KDE or most other distros with Plasma don't.
