Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evtouch

On my laptop Panasonic Toughbook CF-29, the touchpad is unusable when
the evtouch driver is enabled in xorg.conf. However, without the evtouch
driver, the touchscreen does not report touch events so I would really
like to have both touchpad and touchscreen. The mouse cursor does not
move at all when using the touchpad or sort of jumps immediately back to
its original position, it looks like it were jumping 10-20 pixels in the
direction of the move and than back.

The system is currently Kubuntu 8.04.01 fully up to date and the problem
occurred after an upgrade from 7.10. I have tried all sorts of changes
in xorg.conf without success.

The current config is attached.

The 'xinput list' command outputs the following about the touchpad:

"Touchpad"      id=5    [XExtensionPointer]
        Num_buttons is 9
        Num_axes is 2
        Mode is Relative
        Motion_buffer is 256
        Axis 0 :
                Min_value is -1
                Max_value is -1
                Resolution is 1
        Axis 1 :
                Min_value is -1
                Max_value is -1
                Resolution is 1

'xinput test Touchpad' reports events when I touch the pad, it also
correctly reports button presses.
