Kernel 2.6.34 has been released upstream with support for this touch-screen.

The touch function of the screen is working using lucid with the Kernel version 2.6.34. But I found no possibility for a calibration!

[Jörg Welzel (welzel-everswinkel)]

The touch screen now works fine with lucid!
My problem was, that I used 2 sreens simultaneously. In that case the calibration is not correct. With use of multiscreen function obiously there are still problems.

Now I wait for the multi-touch-function.

Evtouch is going to be removed from the archive starting in natty, closing bugs that become obsolete due to that. Use the 'evdev' driver for touchscreens.
