I have a brand new EeeTOP et1602 and I cannot get the touchscreen to
work properly.

lsusb: 
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 1bfd:1688 TouchPack Resistive Touch Screen

I tried the instructions here (http://idlethread.blogspot.com/2009/08
/touchscreen-fail.html) but the touchscreen does not work.

I followed some instructions
(http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Asus_EeeTop) and got the touchscreen
to partly work.  I had to modify my xorg.conf file and add this udev
rule

KERNEL=="event*", SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1bfd",
ATTRS{idProduct}=="1688", SYMLINK+="input/evtouch"


I think somehow the driver got the x/y/z/rx mixed up.  A press on the middle of the screen produces a Z, Rx coordinates of (2365, 2176).  

Input driver version is 1.0.0
Input device ID: bus 0x3 vendor 0x1bfd product 0x1688 version 0x101
Input device name: "HID TOUCH HID Touch Panel"
