I've managed to apply your patch, and can confirm that it works - my initial impressions (using it for 15 mins...) are that even 256x256 resolution absolute mode + synaptics is much better than the touchpad's built-in gesture detection. Let's work your patch into something which applies on top of the existing driver, and get it merged. Cheers! Chris
