Bug Description

The problem is the next:
After setting the Coordinate Transformation Matrix of any touch screen (tried 2-3 kind of) The mouse movement crashes:

Nextwindow Fermi Touchscreen: The cursor is blinking in the left top of the screen only. (Able to click, no movement) (crashes when set to the default too)
HuiToo Computer INC. HuiToo Computer INC.: The cursor is moving across the screen but jumping around, no logic in movement. (Able to click)(on default it works)
TOUCHSCREEN: same as on HuiToo

I am using ubuntu 12.04

   uname -r
3.2.0-33-generic-pae

I tried to rotate my touch but it crashed. Ones I tried to set the matrix as the default:
   xinput set-prop {NUMBEROFTOUCHSCREEN} 'Coordinate Transformation Matrix' 1.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000
After this the erratic mouse movement started again.

The problem is in the udev driver. Updating the driver to the newest version vill solve the problem. (Need to compile manually..)

Mark, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

The update solved the problem, but we are using some old machines in integrated environment and we are unable to update em.
Getting the new version of xorg will solve the problem.
