I have an HP TX2 Touchsmart and I love it with Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx I am quite new to this and so far I have a new affair.
I am wondering if you can tell me your touchscreen settings for Comiz and also what apps and games work good for the touch screens as well and how to get them.
I run a forum for touchscreens if you look my name up in Youtube youll find it.
I will support Linux in everyday from this day forward. I am a new :)

You might give the new Gnome Shell a try. It's already quite good for touchscreen usage.
In general, I think that KDE is a slightly better option than Gnome 2 for touchscreens.

As for games, the game engine Spring is relatively good for playing with a touchscreen, you can find the installation instructions here:

You can get mods and games for it on springfiles or similar sites.
