Hi, I could also reproduce this issue using a T450s, but have probably found the issue behind it. At some point a new PS/2 mode was introduced by Synaptics, called EWmode. This can be enabled by setting bit 2 of the mode byte. But previously this bit was used for 'Disable Gesture', whatever that stands for, and it was reused for selecting EWmode. Now if plain Wmode is selected, with bit 0 of the mode byte, than disable gesture is on by default and bit 2 selects EWmode instead. Reference: http://www.synaptics.com/sites/default/files/511-000275-01_RevB.pdf The current implementation of the driver doesn't take EWmode into account, and enables it, when setting both Wmode and what it thinks to be the disable gesture bit. It is probably selecting EWmode that causes the glitch.
