Hey Jason, If you can, try starting by just compiling and running a custom kernel for your favourite distro. I know Fedora has a nice wiki page on doing that and I'm sure the other distros do to. Once you get that far, I'll probably have some pseudo-code ready. Its in a very limited are we will be modifying and a great place to get your feet wet.
Starting with input-linux is way easier to get started BUT its not aligned with latest kernel driver and it will really, really help out to use the pointer emulation logic in recent kernels to aid in finger tracking since HW looks likes its probably not doing it.
