The manual says:
...
6-1-2 Kernel source patch If your Linux kernel version is 3.8.0 upwards and using resistive or SCAP touch controller, please comment the following RED section in your source code.
[u]
/SourceCode/drivers/hid/hid-core.c
..
switch (hdev->vendor) {
…
/*case USB_VENDOR_ID_DWAV:*/
/* These are handled by usbtouchscreen. hdev->type is probably
* HID_TYPE_USBNONE, but we say !HID_TYPE_USBMOUSE to match
* usbtouchscreen. */
/*if ((hdev->product == USB_DEVICE_ID_EGALAX_TOUCHCONTROLLER ||
hdev->product == USB_DEVICE_ID_DWAV_TOUCHCONTROLLER) &&
hdev->type != HID_TYPE_USBMOUSE)
return true;
break;*/

Ugh.. You don't really want to do that.
There's a whole mess of stuff that their "instructions" leave out, such as learning to configure, rebuild, and install the modified kernel and modules afterwards.
The entire section is bogus anyway -- there's a way to achieve what that "patch" does without actually patching anything. What they are struggling to do, is to tell the kernel not to manage their device, as they instead want to (quite sensibly) do it all from the application code instead. Their problem is, they know about as much about Linux development as you do. Next to nothing -- no offence intended, to you anyway.
Gimme a sec or two to look up the simple method for this.
