It works in hardy but not in gutsy. The gutsy has the old Xorg, so, you could use the penmount 2.0.1 for it.

You can download the deb file from here:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14636751/xserver-xorg-input-penmount_1.2.0-1ubuntu1.1_i386.deb

The calibration in hardy should be done from the xorg.conf, by adding this section
Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier "PenMount"
 Driver "penmount"
 Option "Protocol" "PM6000USB"
 Option "Device" "/dev/input/touchscreen"
 Option "PMode" "1" # Was 1 initially
 Option "ReportingMode" "raw" # disable scaling to screen resolution
 Option "MinX" "10"
 Option "MaxX" "1000"
 Option "MinY" "10"
 Option "MaxY" "1000"
 Option "ADBit" "10"
 Option "Beep" "0" # 0 = no beep, 1 = beep enabled
 Option "PenDownMode" "0" # 0=stream mode, 1=point mode
 Option "SwapXY" "1"
 Option "DebugLevel" "9"
EndSection

AND, in your ServerLayout section, remember to add:
InputDevice "Penmount" "SendCoreEvents"

Cheers,
Peter
