The trick was to create an /etc/modprobe.d/xenarc.conf with:
# Stop messing with my Xenarc touch screen blacklist usbtouchscreen
(I found that suggestion on Samiux's blog.
Now it seems to work consistently across reboots. The rest of the process was to set up a /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-touchkit.conf with:
Section "InputClass" Identifier "Touchkit Touch" MatchIsTablet "on" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Driver "evtouch" Option "ReportingMode" "Raw" Option "Emulate3Buttons" Option "Emultate3Timeout" "50" Option "SendCoreEvents" "On" Option "TapTimer" "200" Option "LongTouchTimer" "400" Option "MinX" "140" Option "MinY" "193" Option "MaxX" "1550" Option "MaxY" "1750" EndSection
Note that I've tried ~6 different 702TSV units, and they all seem to more or less work with these calibration parameters.
And then this is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout0" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" EndSection Section "Files" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Xenarc700" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" Monitor "Xenarc700" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 # The native resolution of a Xenarc 702TSV is 800x480, but # I couldn't find any modes that'd work. Modes "800x600" EndSubSection EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "BlankTime" "0" Option "StandbyTime" "0" Option "SuspendTime" "0" Option "OffTime" "0" EndSection

I have a xenarc 1020tsv and am trying to go the route of the eGalaxTouch driver that came with the unit... why did you choose to go with evtouch instead?
Also, once you're using evtouch, what utility do you use to calibrate it?
Thanks,
Dave
P.S. I'm also on 10.04LTS
I went with evtouch because it was packaged by ubuntu. Proprietary packages lead to heartache in the long run.
I calibrated the first one "by hand", nudging the values and trying them, and then I've found the other units to work with those values.
