Hi Seth,

I tested this kernel on a Samsung QX410 with Elantech touchpad, kernel version as follows:

Linux version 2.6.38-11-generic (root@tangerine) (gcc version 4.5.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.5.2-8ubuntu4) ) #48~lp681904v201108052202 SMP Fri Aug 5 22:16:29 UTC

It works and feels very similar to the patch for #64 (which is what I use on my 2.6.38-10 current kernel), I tested tap-click and two-finger scrolling (vertical and horizontal) and they all work fine.

FWIW, on this particular laptop I don't get the wobbliness problem everyone talks about.

Relevant lines from dmesg:

[ 16.407116] elantech: assuming hardware version 3, firmware version 133.27.0
[ 16.443281] elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result 0x19, 0x14, 0x0c.
[ 16.606611] elantech: x_max = 2934, y_max = 1630
[ 16.621855] input: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input8

Don't hesitate to let me know if you need more information about this system, or need me to perform more tests.

Thanks!
