I used the livecd Maverick Alpha 3 Netbook. Without the usbhid.quirks option, the cursor stays in the upper left corner. With the usbhid.quirks option, I can use xinput_calibrator, set the 'Evdev Axes Swap' and the 'Evdev Axis Inversion' to 1 and have a working touchscreen. Now I've installed the backported kernel (same kernel as in Alpha 3, I believe) on my existing installation, without any custom boot options and the cursor still goes to the upper left corner.
