Not yet, i am awaiting the delivery of that laptop.
It will be here this week, or the next. It depends a little on the
Norwegian customs office.

I will try to install 9.10 and look if it works without any problems.

The old xorg.conf file had to have these values in it to get the
touchscreen and the pad to work:

Section "InputDevice"
         Identifier "CF-29 Touchpad"
         Driver "mouse"
         Option "CorePointer" "true"
         Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
         Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
         Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
         Identifier "CF-29 Touchscreen"
         Driver "evtouch"
         Option "Device" "/dev/input/ts1"
         Option "DeviceName" "touchscreen"
         Option "MinX" "140"
         Option "MinY" "70"
         Option "MaxX" "2250"
         Option "MaxY" "1630"
         Option "ReportingMode" "Raw"
         Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
         Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
         Option "SendCoreEvents" "On"
  EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
         Identifier "Default Layout"
         Screen "Default Screen"
         InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
         InputDevice "CF-29 Touchpad"
         InputDevice "CF-29 Touchscreen" "CorePointer"

EndSection

I have contacted the author of x-input calibrator, he said that he was
90% sure that it is usable to calibrate the touchscreen.
