Sorry for being late but I have only access to this touchscreen since this week.

The touchscreen is a "Xernarc 7" 706 series."

In Hardy and in Intrepid, it's basically working well with evtouch except that it's very painful to calibrate and we still didn't succeed to have a good calibration. (The current one was done manually by trying/restarting X/modifying x.org)

I attach the lshal output. The touchscreen is on /dev/input/event2.

Also, as a side note : it seems from the documentation that we need to put the option Calibrate 1 in xorg.conf in order to make the calibration. Is it possible to add to the documentation an sample of a xorg.conf that is working with HAL,with the calibration line commented. It's indeed not really clear what should be in the xorg.conf and what will come from HAL. Do you want that I open a new bug for that ?

Thanks a lot for your work :-)
