djp, For full multitouch support both in Ubuntu 10.10 and future releases, the X evdev input module should be used. In 10.10 this will enable support for the uTouch stack, and in 11.04 this will allow for multitouch support through the X window system.
One should not need to use a different X input module. If you are using a different X input module, please provide more information so we can figure out the best way forward. Just to clarify, Ubuntu 10.10 desktop edition has uTouch support as well, but the only package with uTouch integration is the Unity window manager. Since Unity doesn't come with 10.10 by default, it seems like uTouch is missing even though it's still there :). Natty will have more integration across multiple apps, and the desktop edition will ship Unity by default too.
