The logs are very clear.  Unfortunately, the Windows driver
communicates with the device using a vendor-specific protocol, not the
standard HID protocol.

Unless you can find a Linux driver that understands this protocol, or
get the protocol information from the vendor (or reverse-engineer it)  
and write a driver, there's no way to use the touchscreen under Linux.

Good luck,
