Which is true (I was almost about to write the same) for systems like X11. But 
for embedded systems where Qt runs directly on the framebuffer, Qt has to deal 
with input itself. So there is a valid question about drivers. But I believe 
that if the touchscreen is supported as (for example) hid interface in the 
kernel, the normal input methods of Qt should work...

Have fun,
