@Jonathan Aquilla:
The linked Patch http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg26869.html
was the original one which i could not use out of the box for patching my kernel.

The https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/967399/+attachment/3914316/+files/elantechfull.patch
posted here by Faule Socke is initially the same, but was slightly modified to work out of the box
and to use the right xorg configs without further changes.

the Bug still exists in actual kernels, but it can completely be solved
with the elantechfull.patch
