Steve, Reminiscent of PNP on another operating system huh? If it works automagically it is great - if it doesn't work automagically it may never work. I have been working with Keytec for two weeks to get a serial magic touch screen to work with 10.04. Keytec wrote a new driver because they only had drivers for 64 bit system. The driver loaded and worked but the calibration is not correct. Keytec's calibration routine does not yet work. I think Keytec is working on it. Will you post your xorg.conf file? thanks Stuart
