[Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work

Back from vacation.  I rewrote the Dell patch, and fixed the
suspend/resume bug.  I couldn't find any way to enable hardware tapping
or scrolling within absolute mode -- those features are apparently
handled by the driver for this device.  So, until software support is
written for Linux, we're stuck with IMPS emulation mode.  I did,
however, figure out how to disable/enable hardware tapping in IMPS mode,
and left it as a comment inside the patch.

The attached patch is against the Ubuntu-2.6.32-24.40 tag.
