-'''Re to ATTENTION!''' I reply to myself. In the 0.7.8 branch they added the support for the multitouch feature. However this "feature" makes the usage of pen almost impossible (see [http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1777969&forum_id=236872 this forum]). I prepared a patch which removes this feature and wrote an ebuild which can apply this patch: [https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147537 Bugzilla Bug 147537]. However still I have small problems in Xorg 7.3: [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1823908&group_id=69596&atid=525124 bug 1823908]
