Hey Vladimir,

Awesome! Thanks for the prompt reply and the patch! You mentioned in your 
email yesterday that PS/2 emulation mode is giving you headaches. Would it be 
possible to have the driver act like Synaptics touchpads? Maybe provide some 
sort of driver shim to convert between Synaptics APIs and Elantech APIs? 
Granted, all of this may be moot and not even possible. I have no clue how 
touchpad drivers work under-the-hoods, so my newbishness is most likely 
showing. ;)

Thanks,
