Update:

After exchanging a few emails with NextWindow support, they finally sent
me a driver, a "prototype written for ubuntu". I'm attaching the file
they sent me. I don't have much information about it, but it works great
with Ubuntu Karmic i386! These are the steps I took:


- Install Ubuntu 9.10 i386.

- Install the driver (nwfermi-0.1_i383.deb)

- Install some extra software: joystick (for testing) and xserver-xorg-
input-evtouch.

- Load the module:
     sudo modprobe nw-fermi

- Activate the input device:
     sudo sh -c "echo 1926 007a > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/nwfermi/new_id"

- After this, the device "/dev/input/event6" is working. Testing:
     sudo evtest /dev/input/event6

- Restart Xorg (restart the session)


Moreover, I tweaked to work after reboot:

- Add "nw-fermi" to /etc/modules

- Add boot script to /etc/rc.local
        sh -c "echo 1926 007a > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/nwfermi/new_id"


I hope this works for someone, I had never seen "nw-fermi" before. If it's new 
code, we should probably ask NextWindow to release the code.
