I met the same problem on a HP/Compaq TC1000. So I tried to install the fpit 
driver regardless of its dependencies. (Before installation through synaptics, 
it tries to remove ubuntu-desktop, xorg, xserver-core and many more which would 
not make much sense to me.) I manually copied the appropriate files 
(/usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/fpit_drv.so and 
/usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg-input-fpit/script which is a symlink). After that, 
the X server starts normally but the driver still does not work. Here is the 
relevant part of Xorg.0.log:
(II) LoadModule: "fpit"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/fpit_drv.so
(II) Module fpit: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 1.6.0, module version = 1.3.0
        Module class: X.Org XInput Driver
        ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 4.0
(EE) module ABI major version (4) doesn't match the server's version (7)
(II) UnloadModule: "fpit"
So the driver module seems to be incompatible with the X server's version. Any 
work-arounds?
Cheers!
