It is very disorganized at this time. There are no documents on it's current
state, and it still has not stabilized from major 4.0 changes.
Do not follow the mouse or keyboard. They are very stable, but special
cases and complex.

The only interface to the kernel is opening a serial I/O port.
If it is USB, you will need some updates to the server code first.

Start from the current CVS code, and find another touchscreen
driver with the most recent source code changes -- it will
be most likely to be up to date. Not all drivers are.
After hacking on this for a bit, send me some Email for further
advice.
