I see. In this case the driver should not really report ABS_PRESSURE but
only BTN_TOUCH. I understand that this would require synaptics X driver
changes but that should be OK. I wrote a patch to the X driver which
seems to be working if I bastardize my synaptics touchpad but I would
like to have it tested with real Elantech device. I am attaching the
version of Elantech driver that I want to apply (there were some timy
changes) and the patch to teh Synaptics X driver (against recent git
pull from its repository). If you could give it a try that would be
grand.

Thanks!
