I can confirm on hardy (haven't tried on jaunty) that evdev and evtouch can cooperate however the 11-x11-synaptics.fdi is assumed to be the driver.

I've also been using a different touchscreen on a different machine and used the same technique to fix it (see patch), so i was thinking that perhaps this was a kernel reporting issue as again the axis were incorrectly reported and synaptics then touchpad was assumed.

The current patch i'm using is attached which fixes at least the NextWindow, the eGalax is the other device though the egalax uses different axis again and requires xinput config to use.

Anything else i can do let me know.
