I have uploaded a new version for Karmic to my PPA. See the attached debdiff.

Explanation of my changes:
1) - 105_correct_multifinger_click.patch: Drop patch as it breaks
      the expected behavior for multitouch clicking (LP: #320585).
This is simply a revert.

2) - 111_add_active_area.patch: Backport "Synaptics Area" property
      from upstream (LP: #402863).
This is a patch of mine which was accepted by upstream but I had to adapt it for Karmic as the upstream driver has changed a bit.

3) - 112_jumpy_cursor_quirks.patch: Add Quirk for Dell Mini 10v
       touchpad (LP: #402863).
This patch hasn't been accepted by upstream yet. It acts differently according to the kind of touchpad:
* non-multitouch devices: things should improve only for the Dell Mini 10v and for the Hp Mini 1000 MI. Other netbooks/laptops which don't have multitouch devices should not be affected.
* multitouch devices: things should improve for all devices.

4) - 113_add_capabilities.patch: Backport read-only "Synaptics
     Capabilities" property from upstream.
I backported this read-only property from upstream as we need it for an OEM project.

Feedback is welcome
