	I have indeed.  All such investigations with serial settings is 
pointless unless you have the relevant driver in your 
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/ or similar path and then have a XF86Config 
entry to configure the device.  There will be a controller board that 
you need to identify what manufacturer it's from to get the correct 
driver.  CTX's website at a brief glance isn't forth coming, I could 
only obtain that it uses a resistive 5-wire touchscreen. The website 
only has MS Window flavor drivers, drop them an email and see if they'll 
tell you what controller they use.
