Hello again everyone,

I've written a very simple tool to help calibrating
the driver. It can be found in the updated driver
package:

http://www.razdva.cz/vencik/TC1000_And_Linux/src/drivers/xf86-input-tc1kpen-0.0.1.tar.bz2

It's really very simple, but it should help a bit to
find the min/max on-screen coordinates and side-buttons
coordinates and Y-threshold.

Note that you must NOT run it while in X with the driver
loaded (it reads the serial device => conflict would happen).
Run it from terminal.

Also a note for Gentoo users: with David Kuehling's kind permission,
I've put my adaptation of his fpi2002-new.sh script for Gentoo
runscript init system on my WEB. GNU GPL v2 applies.

Have fun,

vencik
