Yes partly, I would also like to see the line >>Synaptics Touchpad
Capabilities: xx<<. Is UltraNav the official name for your touchpad? (I
will add it then).

But do they not work all the time or do they not work sometimes (without
exactly the quoted lines)? 

What I am trying to find out is whether this is a new type of extended
packets or not (and how to detect the difference if any).

Without the patch could you sent the warnings of >>Synps2: Pressure is 0,
but x or y is not 0. ...<< and the data and also
>>Stickdata? ...<<. (when pressing each button, using the stick and a
combination of moving the stick with a button pressed?)
