sorry for misunderstanding, let me try again.
I _was_ using AbsX/Y valuators before I realized that for my case it
is easier to use root_x/y.
However I was getting wrong values from those valuators - here is the
output of the xinput test-xi2 tool when I touch in the bottom right
corner of my screen:
EVENT type 20 (TouchMotion)
device: 10 (10)

flags:
root: 1258.53/769.11
event: 179.53/170.11

3: 1259.00
4: 769.00
windows: root 0x14e event 0x4600001 child 0x4600001
However, from the kernel I see correct values - here is the output of
the evtest app:

As you can see when using XI2.1 I the AbsX axis has range 0 to 9600,
however touching in the bottom-right corner gives me value 1259 (the
resolution of my display is 1280x800), hence someone on the X side
modifies those values.
