jorgens, thanks so much for reporting that! With that information I found that I only had to copy a single file in Debian (stretch/sid) to make the touchpad work flawlessly (using libinput instead of synaptics):
cp /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-libinput.conf
Voila, after restarting X libinput is used for the touchpad and I can now drag, middle-click and rest my palm on there and it works!!!
Thanks again!
