Hi 

 a new installation for my 17" Touchscreen iiyama T1730S

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0eef:0001 D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd eGalax TouchScreen

due to the lack of a cd-rom i've used Ubuntu 9.04 netbook remix usb-image for installation and, what a surprise:

 Drag works now! (after adjusting longtouched value), but:

 Calibrationtool didn't work for me
 Startup with other than native screen resolution is misscalibrated (did not resize to proper resolution) but works fine aufter disconnect&reconnect the usb-touch

change the longtouched value to hold-down mousekey1:
