Comment(by dsd):

 Replying to [comment:9 erikos]:
 > Talked to Jon about it: "My guess is that this is bad behaviour between
 the legacy support in our kernel driver and Xorg, the legacy support tries
 to make the touch events emulate a mouse input. We may need to resurrect
 my code that allows legacy support to be turned on and off by a sysfs
 flag".

 The current shipped code already has that patch, so the code tries not to
 report legacy events. But I wonder if reporting BTN_TOUCH is really
 necessary and if omitting it might improve things.
