great, thanks.

Actually, it doesn't really matter if the patch from Hans was applied
or not. I am looking at the raw event from the device before kernel
processing :)

May I ask you one more thing: can you run `libinput record` (as root)
on the touchpad? I need to know how many fingers the touchpad is
capable to detect, as right now, my tests are failing because of that.

No worries. Having a responsive user is much more valuable than
someone who takes ages to reply even in a clear and well polished
message :)
