Update to inputattach for Tabletkiosk Sahara TouchIt-213 Tablet PC

[claudio]

inputattach does not yet support the kernel driver for the serial touch screen of the Tabletkiosk Sahara TouchIt-213 Tablet PC.

I have extended myself inputattach.c version 1.24 found at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/dtor/inputattach.c to support this, and cleaned it up a bit. I have attached this file.

If you prefer for some reason to stick with version 1.23 as currently included in the package, I can submit you a minimal patch to that source which just adds the support for the TouchIt-213.

Here is a patch for your current inputattach version 1.23 which just adds the code necessary for the touchit213 driver.

This is fixed in Natty at least as touchit213 is a usable mode in inputattach.
