I believe you need type="string" despite the value being an integer.  I use 
the following to adjust the settings on my touchpad:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
   <device>
     <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
	<merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">true</merge>
	<!-- fix edges for eeePC 900a touchpad -->
	<merge key="input.x11_options.RightEdge" type="string">400</merge>
	<merge key="input.x11_options.LeftEdge" type="string">50</merge>
	<merge key="input.x11_options.TopEdge" type="string">60</merge>
	<merge key="input.x11_options.BottomEdge" type="string">300</merge>
	<!-- fix swapped middle and right clicks with multitouch -->
	<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">2</merge>
	<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string">3</merge>
     </match>
   </device>
</deviceinfo>
