I've written some code for the synaptics-client-pasthroug thing
for the synaptics driver.
it's just working now, but may not be perfect/ready in any sense.
synaptics-client-full.patch
-includes the synsptics patch
synaptics-client-incremental.patch
-for kernels with synaptics-patch already applied
happy testing!!
