This does currently work in 12.04 but note that from the changelog for 1.5.0-2ubuntu1~nomt1:
* Temporarily drop multitouch patches for X server 1.11 bringup:
+ 116_xi2_1.patch
+ 117_gestures.patch
+ 119_active_area_touches.patch
+ 120_active_touches_num_fingers.patch
+ 121_semi-mt_num_fingers.patch
+ 123_order_ProcessTouch_for_numFingers.patch
These patches are still disabled as of 1.5.0+git20120210-0ubuntu1 which I haven't tested yet but
plan on testing later today (and I imagine will still work). We will need to wait and see if and when
those patches get integrated.
