Allow me to answer to my own question: in my ~/.profile file, I had to 
add the following:

export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event2

This got the touchscreen working on ts_calibrate, and on x-window. 
Though only by running startx. Xdm nor gdm could detect it. Well, I 
suppose I can just put su -c user startx on rc.local...
