Confirmed for Acer Aspire 5740 running Lucid Alpha 3.

What method does the synaptics driver use for determining multitouch support? Is it actually probing the hardware, or is it using a serial/hardware ID table? This seems to be an issue (there's another large bug report regarding this here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/308191) for newer touchpad hardware only.
