Could you please test the first patch? I'd like to know if it doesn't
break already working touchpads. It's here:

How do you use your touchpad to drag? Do you "tap-hold" on the touchpad
surface or do you use extra buttons (left click with finger move)?

The current driver doesn't implement tap-hold.

The second patch (or the third, which includes the second) should fix
the problem.
