Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

I was eager to test the new support for multitouch devices so I got a magic trackpad. Beside the association only working on command line it worked out of the box but in basic mode: it moves the cursor and the physical click works but no tap to click and no scroll (either on edge or with two fingers)
The gestures are properly detected using the test tool but the xorg driver fails to load. I get these lines in the xorg.conf file:
