Bug Description

A test app for this bug can be downloaded from lp:~jpakkane/+junk/touchpad-tester

When tested with a Magic Trackpad and a Lenovo (?) trackpad, the latter does not show up in the device listing that touchpadtester prints. However touching the pad does cause touch events, but the X server claims they originate from the Magic Trackpad.

Either X should list that touchpad as a touch device or not send XI touch events from it. Especially not ones that claim to come from a different device.
