We can confirm this with HP TouchSmart dx9000 which has the unnamed touchscreen device on the USB bus as ID "1926:0003". This touchscreen does not work out of the box. I figure "1926:0003" is the touchscreen since it shows up in dmesg as NextWindow Touchscreen:

Once complete, I will confirm this. Thanks! Side note: USB ID should be named properly as "NextWindow Touchscreen" in the Linux USB ID database. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Handling NextWindow Touchscreen (multitouch) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
