I had the exact same problem.  Then I stumbled almost by accident in
some other thread where this patch to xorg.conf was mentioned:

 -        Option          "TslibDevice"           "/dev/input/event1"
 +        Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/event1"

That fixed the issue.


Ciao,

Enrico
