Hi Seth,

Thanks so much for the deb for the dkms driver. Super-easy to install:

wget -c http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp681904/psmouse-elantech-dkms/v0.1/psmouse-elantech-dkms_0.1_all.deb

sudo dpkg --install psmouse-elantech-dkms_0.1_all.deb

I simply rmmoded the old psmouse driver, then modprobed the old one on the fly and things started working. . Mouse pointer functionality, two finger scroll and double-tap-for-right-click are what I tested, all seem to work just as with the previous patch (I was using the dkms version of the elantech-v6 patch).

This is on Natty with a just-installed 2.6.38-11 kernel, running on a Samsung QX410.

My dmesg reads:

[ 148.846439] elantech: assuming hardware version 3, firmware version 133.27.0
[ 148.880705] elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result 0x19, 0x14, 0x0c.
[ 148.956447] elantech: x_max = 2934, y_max = 1630
[ 148.972206] input: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input13

Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks again!
