hi,
I think your driver needs patching,I patched mine.

By the way I'm currently offline so I can't see the link.
Also:
*there is an xf86-input-tslib plugin which works fine except when you
apply some static rotation to xf86-video-fbdev
*I locally switched to evdev for htcdream,as advised by #xorg-devel and
will push soon
*if you plan to use xf86-video-fbdev rotated look at the thread I
started in the xorg devel mailing list.
