Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

When using something like `xinput set-float-prop $INPUTDEV "Coordinate
Transformation Matrix" 0.0 -1.0 1.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0` to match
the coordinates of a touchscreen/tablet to a rotated (transformed)
screen, the cursor moves around erratically.

>From the original report of david-dklevine 
>(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/742567/comments/32):
when a horizontal or vertical drag is performed the cursor jumps wildly - it 
appears to jump between what it should be according to the coordinate 
transformation and what it would be if x=0 and y=1 (that is if the second line 
of the matrix was the identity). With a diagonal drag or a touch the cursor 
appears where it should be.

In addition to the Cando Multi Touch Panel reported at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-
evdev/+bug/742567/comments/32, it also affects me with a AsusTek, Inc.
MultiTouch(TTI) (on Asus EeePC T101MT)
