Preferred way for a multitouch driver?

From: Florian Echtler <hidden>

Hello everyone,

I've just bought a Lenovo S10-3t convertible netbook, and now I'm 
experimenting with the "multitouch" screen (dual-touch, rather). It's 
being recognized as a HID device, and using hid-device-dump, I can nicely 
read the reports of both fingers. There's also some hacks floating around 
which use xf86-input-hidtouch, but AFAICT that doesn't do any kind of 
multitouch.
From lurking here on the list, I've gathered that the evdev interface by 
now fully supports all kinds of multitouch events, so I guess the 
preferred way would be a hiddev-to-evdev bridge of some kind, right?

Can somebody point me into the right direction, e.g. to some other driver 
which also works that way?

Many thanks,
Florian
