Bug Description
My touch screen doesn't work on a fresh install of lucid alpha 3.
The pen support is autoconfigured to use the wacom X driver, which rejects it because the vendor is not wacom.
The 2.6.32 kernel driver for ntrig also does not work well with the more recent firmwares and needs the fixes that are in 2.6.34-rc1 to get basic functionality working (also improves behavior for older firmwares). But that version also has one identified bug which while bad has only been seen to interfere with the X evdev driver (BTN_TOUCH is not released). The patch I'm including should appear in the mainline eventually, but should be applied to support evdev which is the default handler for touch on this device in lucid.
I'm also including the patched version of hid-ntrig.c

There were two patches included in the tar. These should be attached separately since they're to two different packages (-wacom and linux). (May have been better to do entirely separate bug reports for each patch, but this is fine this time.)
