This is not a duplicate!  The parent bug is about touchpads that already
had multi-finger capabilities in Windows; this bug is about using a hack
to get multi-finger capabilities on ALL touchpads.

Just in case anyone thinks the driver is only doing emulation, try this
in Windows: go to Mouse control panel, and press alt-shift-i.

One finger tip: 1 finger, pressure 60, width 4.
One finger sideways on the touchpad: it detects 1 finger, pressure 107, width 15.
Two finger tips side-by-side, slightly separated: 2 fingers, pressure 60, width 4.  Same is true for 3 fingers.
Two fingers sideways: 2 fingers, pressure 150,  width 4.

This is with that special driver.
I'll have to try it on my netbook, which came with multitouch out-of-the-box.
