Even if you don't want the functionality of being able to touch both touchscreens at once theres a bug in xfree86 to do with shifting the focus between screens on single presses ( the current shifing code assumes that i'll be able to ignore a move and go one round the main internal event loop before shifting screens) I have a patch for this but as i'm not a real x hacker it might have problems, YMMV. ask me if you want it.
i haven't sent it to any X devlopers cos i have no idea who to send it to... this is the most opaque open source developent team ever.. you dont even get repsonses to bug reports..
