I installed the .deb from comment #57, but it disabled the trackpad altogether, leaving the touchpoint as the only functioning mouse device. Before installing the .deb, and after uninstalling it, the trackpad is treated like a PS/2 mouse. With the .deb installed, xinput recognized the device as a "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad", but showed its status as disabled. Using xinput set-prop to enable it was just ignored (no error message, but it stayed disabled). I'm attaching the output of xinput list-props.
This is on a Dell Latitude E6420, on Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit, kernel 3.0.0-15-generic.
