You're mentioning Dells E6410, E6510 suffer from this problem too. Both these models are equipped with the Instant ON feature which is AFAIK Linux-kernel based (http://www.splashtop.com/)

If the touchpad scrolling does not work, I'd suggest to contact Dell and insist on a rapid bugfix.
If it does work, IMO it would mean a Linux compatible driver is found in the Instant ON image and could be exported.

In both cases I assume that Linux kernel driver changes must follow GPL and the patched driver should be made available public.
