The patch from comment #64 is unlikely to ever make it upstream or into
Ubuntu. It changes too much in a single patch, it needs a lot of
cleanup, and the upstream driver has moved on to the official multi-
touch protocol.

I've used that patch as a reference for understanding the newer Elantech
touchpad protocol and developed a patch that only adds support for this
protocol. This is testing well for me on a Samsung NF310, but I'm not
sure whether or not it will support the touchpads on all the models
listed here. I've made builds for natty and oneiric in order to get
testing on more hardware so we can find out.

Note that unless you are using oneiric you will still see the wobbly
cursor issue. In oneiric this is fixed by filtering in xserver-xorg-
input-synaptics. I have no plans to add any filtering to the driver.

The test builds are available at:

After testing, please report back which hardware you tested on and
whether or not it worked. If it doesn't work please attach the output of
dmesg when running the test build. Thanks!
