How Do I make an Acer T230H Touchcreen work on Ubuntu 9.10?

Question

I've done this so far:

sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/99-touchscreen.rules

And added:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0408", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3000", SYMLINK+="usb/quanta_touch"
SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0408", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3000", SYMLINK+="input/quanta_touch"

sudo service udev restart

then the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8932808&postcount=36

And then added to my xorg conf:

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier      "Acer T230H"
 Driver          "hidtouch"
 Option          "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
 Option          "ReportingMode"         "Raw"
 Option          "Device"                "/dev/usb/quanta_touch"
 Option          "PacketCount"           "13"
 Option          "OpcodePressure"        "852034"
 Option          "OpcodeX"               "65584"
 Option          "OpcodeY"               "65585"
 Option          "CalibrationModel"      "1"
 Option          "CornerTopLeftX"        "0"
 Option          "CornerTopLeftY"        "0"
 Option          "CornerTopRightX"       "1920" # 1920 for 23"
 Option          "CornerTopRightY"       "0"
 Option          "CornerBottomLeftX"     "0"
 Option          "CornerBottomLeftY"     "1080"  # 1080 for 23"
 Option          "CornerBottomRightX"    "1920" # 1920 for 23"
 Option          "CornerBottomRightY"    "1080"  # 1080 for 23"
 Option          "CornerScreenWidth"     "1920" # 1920 for 23"
 Option          "CornerScreenHeight"    "1080"  # 1080 for 23"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier "Touchscreen"
    InputDevice "Acer T230H" "SendCoreEvents"
EndSection

And restarted. And the touchscreen does nothing. Any ideas?

Well it works under 10.04, and 10.04.01 fixed the issue with 10.04 OS being slow. Since 10.04.01 runs at a decent speed, I think that's the current "best answer".
