Description changed to:
Run the following command:

  $ sudo lsinput

If you have N-trig hardware and are using the community-maintained open
source driver, you may see three devices:

 * N-trig Pen
 * N-trig Touchscreen
 * N-trig Multitouch

Here is example output (other devices removed):
[...]
/dev/input/event9
   bustype : BUS_USB
   vendor  : 0x1b96
   product : 0x1
   version : 272
   name    : "N-Trig Pen"
   phys    : "usb-0000:00:1d.1-2/input1"
   uniq    : ""
   bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_ABS EV_MSC

/dev/input/event10
   bustype : BUS_USB
   vendor  : 0x1b96
   product : 0x1
   version : 272
   name    : "N-Trig MultiTouch"
   phys    : "usb-0000:00:1d.1-2/input1"
   uniq    : ""
   bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_ABS EV_MSC

/dev/input/event11
   bustype : BUS_USB
   vendor  : 0x1b96
   product : 0x1
   version : 272
   name    : "N-Trig Touchscreen"
   phys    : "usb-0000:00:1d.1-2/input1"
   uniq    : ""
   bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_ABS EV_MSC
[...]

You will want the device node associated with "N-trig Multitouch", in
this case, /dev/input/event10.
