So it looks like for Gen1 touchpads we set autorepeat, and it is that
autorepeat on BTN_TOOL_FINGER that gives what you consider jitter.

  - evdev:
    - [  0, 293648,   1, 325,       2] # EV_KEY / BTN_TOOL_FINGER           2
    - [  0, 293648,   0,   0,       1] # ------------ SYN_REPORT (1) ---------- +1ms
  - evdev:
    - [  0, 303026,   3,  48,      88] # EV_ABS / ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR       88 (-12)
    - [  0, 303026,   3,  53,    -232] # EV_ABS / ABS_MT_POSITION_X      -232 (-22)
    - [  0, 303026,   3,  54,     291] # EV_ABS / ABS_MT_POSITION_Y       291 (+60)
    - [  0, 303026,   3,   0,    -232] # EV_ABS / ABS_X                  -232 (-22)
    - [  0, 303026,   3,   1,     291] # EV_ABS / ABS_Y                   291 (+60)
    - [  0, 303026,   0,   0,       0] # ------------ SYN_REPORT (0) ---------- +10ms

Can you please tell me what drivers are used by the 2 trackpads when they
are connected via Bluetooth? I think we should stop setting autorepeat in
the driver that handles Gen 1.

Also, can you post /proc/bus/input/devices?

Thanks.
