(Get the code!)
The kernel is failing to recognise the touchpad and is falling back to identifying it as a PS2 mouse. This is due to the touchpad/stick using a new protocol. The manufacturer is not releasing the specs so that a free driver can be written.

The protocol has been mostly reverse engineered and there is now a fix involving a patched kernel module, but it isn't completely perfect (won't do multitouch) and hasn't yet found its way into the mainstream kernels.
