I was curious how wacom handled calibration so I googled it.  And as I
should have guessed, Favux has a great article on configuring
touchscreens on Ubuntu. :-)

So for calibration, it looks like you'll need to specify TopX, TopY,
BottomX, and BottomY (note to myself for future, we should add a
"Calibration" alias to align with xf86-input-evdev terms).  This can
be set with a custom HAL fdi and x11_options trick if you want to
avoid xorg.conf files and .xinitrc magic to run xsetwacom that
wacomcpl does.

I'm not sure if anyone suggested how to compute values manually in
that Ubuntu thread but this is how I do it for xf86-input-evdev.  Use
your preferred program to dump values coming from /dev/ttyS0; such as
"xinput test", "evtest", or "xidump".  Now trace around all edges of
screen.  This will print out X/Y values as you do it.  Use the
smallest values printed for your TopX/TopY values and largest values
for BottomX/BottomY.

p.s. your Xorg.log showed touch device but your saying xsetwacom isn't
showing it.  Can you email output of "xinput list" and "xsetwacom -v
--list"?
