Ok, after a clean install and updating the kernel to 3.15.0-rc2 and patching the driver it does indeed enable multi touch.

It appears to cause other issues which don't make sense to me. (Probably because I'm fairly new to Ubuntu)

After patching the new driver the following happens:
- Unable to change screen resolution (Is it possible this is interferring with the graphics display since its a touch screen?)
- On boot, I get a black screen about 50% of the time, restarting will generally bring it back.
- After a second reboot, it will loose the multi-touch and go back to the way it was, which, results in the display working correctly. Ha!

My gut, is the multi touch is interferring with the touch screen drivers causing some weirdness but I'll have to research it more.
