I had tried both my elan and synaptics laptops with several DDX and got
following results:

xf86-input-evdev - partially works. Touchpad is recognized as touchpad but
handled as touchscreen (driver does direct mapping of finger position to screen
pointer position)
xf86-input-synaptics with evdev interface - works 
xf86-input-synaptics with psm interface - partially works but synaptic-protocol
support is toooo outdated. I had to patch driver to enable multi-finger
recognition.
xf86-input-libinput (not in tree, uses evdev interface) - works
