Hello,

I'm trying to use a usb touchscreen (urtc1000) but I don't get the 
concept of the drivers and the event stuff.

I downloaded the 2-6-25 kernel because of the newly integrated driver 
for the very model I want to use, usbtouchscreen. In the XF86Config file 
I additionally need to specify a driver, but I don't have an idea which 
one. I read about people using evtouch, but I don't know why and I don't 
know which /dev/... node to use. I think it has to do with event nodes 
and evdev is loaded, too.

Furthermore, I don't know how to suppress a mouse driver that processes 
events without suppressing my real hardware mouse.

I hope, my questions are making enough sense to you to see my problem. 
Is there someone to explain some of those things?

Stefan
