Hi Jeremy,

For some reason I did not notice the request for updates.
Meanwhile, Stéphane Chatty developed a driver for my device.
Work is being done now to support the device in 11.04.
A bug started here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/utouch-grail/+bug/637106?comments=all
But now it is here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/utouch/+bug/662621

I posted the bug report because the exact same device id is already used by
the usbtouchscreen driver, but the screen does not work.
I believe Stephane knows how to address is, I do not know the current
status.

Can you please advice me on what to do with this bug report?

Kind regards,
Vincent
