wacom touchscreen driver doesn't point the right place when multi-screen

[montag42]

I'm using a HP Pavilion dv3-2230ef with Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS. This laptop's screen is a touchscreen with a wacom driver, which is working out-of-the-box. But when I plug another screen (a classical, not touchscreen; the touchscreen is below the classical screen) to make dual screen mode (in TwinView) the touchscreen is not setting the mouse at the right place. Actually, it reacts to touches, but misplaces the cursor. For instance, if I touch the touchscreen in the middle, the cursor is being placed on the bottom of the classical screen. I suppose the driver reads the relative position of the touch on the touchscreen and transforms it to relative coordinates on the whole layout (both screens) instead of calculating positions only on the touchscreen.
