Going forward, we're focusing our tablet support to -wacom and -evdev.
Upstream's intention is that these should cover all tablets including
this one, so we do not need a profusion of different X drivers for
specific brands of devices.  As you guys have noticed with fujitouch,
these drivers are not well maintained upstream at all.  Indeed, even
-evtouch is not actively maintained anymore.

So, I would amend my previous advice by saying instead you guys should
test this hardware with -evdev or -wacom, and file bug reports against
them for any deficiencies found.

Alternatively, you can see if Debian would be willing to maintain the
driver.  If so, we will pull it in normally (but too late for Lucid).
But I suspect they'll also be of the mind that support for this hardware
should be added to / improved in -evdev or -wacom.
