It's interesting that Sentelic's engineer said that. I am finding that in absolute mode the touchpad is not very accurate and a bid jittery - not so in relative mode. Perhaps this is symptomatic of what he is describing.

I'm not aware of any roadmap - my first goal was just to get absolute mode working with two finger scrolling, which I consider the absolute minimum to make it usable. My test hardware is currently out of the country so I won't be able to do much on this for the next 2 weeks until it comes back.

My changes were mainly to get things working on kernel 3.0. I haven't tested against 3.2, but Oskari's original version didn't work for me on 3.0. I took a look at the Elantech driver source to get some ideas on how to make it work - this appears to have paid off. My next step was to fix the two finger scrolling as the left and right finger packets arrive separately (same as the Elantech).
