I just joined this list after seing an archived post from July  11
about touchscreen
 calibrations.

It said:

As far as  can tell, Tim's experience is exactly what I observe with the
(presumably unpatched) driver in Feisty.  The thing seems to work fairly
well, but is not calibrated.  Indeed I can not move the mouse into the
outer 10 pixels of the screen, presumably because of the way it is calibrated.
Also MinX, MaxX, MinY and MaxY are ignored.

Since I want my problem fixed, I'm happy to test out this driver, I'd like
help with the following questions (some of them dumb, sorry).

  * Who/what should I talk to in Xorg about this.

  * Since MaxX and friends are ignored, how do you access the "unimproved"
    options.

  * Where do I get the patch.

  * Can/should I try this on Feisty Fawn which I have currently
installed, even though
    the patch is for Gutsy.  If so, how.

  * Since (I have found) MaxX and friends are ignored in the unpatched evdev,
    how did the calibration ever work?

  * If MaxX & friends is ignored, how do I use this improved calibration?
