When trying to calibrate (or more precise: when touching the screen for a certain period; i.e. when moving along the edge during calibration, or just trying to move the mouse cursor on the desktop), X crashes after a while [Output from a calibration attempt below]. From searching on the internet, I found reports which mentioned noapic and/or irqfixup kernel parameters might fix the problem, but on my server they seem not to make a difference. Seems similar to bug #155880, but from reading that, that should've been fixed in the version I'm using?

Not sure if useful (I don't know where to a dbg-enabled version of the evtouch driver), the backtrace full output from gdb.
This backtrace is not while calibrating, but just moving finger along screen.
