David: Thanks for testing! Almost everything you've mentioned is a desktop issue more than a driver issue. The driver mostly just passes the raw data from the touchpad up to the desktop, and the desktop translates this data into motion or scrolling or tapping. Specifically, I think most of the

One more observation. When using the driver my glidepoint (DualPoint Stick) lacks sensitivity. It's perfectly sensitive without the driver. When moving at longer distances the mouse cursor behaves pretty much the same way like before - it seems it's less sensitive, but it does not actually matter.

Seth, I can sure wait for Oneric to have the jitter fixed, but any ideas why it was not there previously (with the driver hacks to put the touchpad/trackstick combo to whatever compatibility mode). Was it that hardware, in that mode, is less sensitive, or there's something else going on? -- You

Speaking to the jitter, I haven't looked into it but a couple of possiblities come to mind. First, the new driver changes the way the data is reported, and perhaps the data is higher resolution and more sensitive. It was also using different code on the X server side of things, so something in
