Good find! That's very crafty.

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
