Same experience here with X crashing.  
Xorg successfully loads with the fpit driver, and I know I have the right 
device (/dev/ttyS1 on this model), because when I touch the gdm login screen, 
it crashes with pastels and then restarts.

I tried ssh'ing and starting X manually.  No errors starting up.  But when I 
touch the screen, I get:
   X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//fpit_drv.so: undefined 
symbol: xf86IsCorePointer

hardware: Fujitsu Stylistic LT C500
distro: Hardy Heron, updated as of now.

I have found some reports on this from gentoo users here:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=193193 

And there looks to be some activity on patching the driver so it use the API 
correctly (I'm guessing) here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-February/032629.html
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-February/032652.html

Hopefully this is the driver not being updated with the API, as I'm guessing, 
and the xorg guys will iron it out before we all have to order trackballs.
Or, maybe get the driver source and start breaking it worse than it is already 
:]
