Jeff: Bug reports are not just like forums where users diagnose just
their own machines on expert advice but much more. These are used by bug
fixers to fully eliminate the problem in future versions of Ubuntu. I
truly agree to your point, you have provided your workaround and that
could be a big relief to people here but it should be marked as a
duplicate for two reasons :

1. Workarounds are not solutions, only temporary relief to user who want
to use multitouch on their laptops. But to make Ubuntu better the bug
has to be dealt by expert bug fixers. Such duplicate bugs helps them to
look at various different hardware configuration where the problem
exist.

2. As we group all the possible bug reports together, the bug reporters
will themselves look at similar other bug reports and may find a useful
solution themselves. This happens many times. This way your solution may
also help may others and not just here.
