Hi,
In an effort to make my laptop conserve more power I've used the 
following patch, which decreases the polling frequency of the touchpad 
by an order of one magnitude. This greatly lessens the amount of wakeups 
on my machine. I haven't detected any misbehaviour when using it.
Original author is Florian Schäfer. [1]

Please consider including this to optimise the battery life of laptops 
using a touchpad.

With kind regards,
Erik Andrén
