Looks to be this commit below, this was officially included in v2.6.36
so should be in all recent Natty kernels:

  commit e1f092102f65e424be40c318a0fab7bb6e34194f
  Author: Pierre BAILLY <pierre at substantiel.fr>

    HID: Add MULTI_INPUT quirk for turbox/mosart touchscreen

Could someone with this H/W confirm that a Natty kernel works for them.
