On my Dell mini 10 (Inspiron 1010), I got it successfully working when
forcing the hw version to 2 in the code.
By default it is not recognised at all as elantech due to the middle
byte of the firmware query, so one must still add the option
force_elantech. For info, here is an output with debug

The patches did not work for me on my Dell Mini 10. I followed the

You're correct, the first two bits of the first byte indeed indicates
the number of fingers used currently, just like with any other version
of the firmware using 6 byte packets. The x- and y-coordinates are also
identical to what earlier firmware versions provided, with one minor
difference: the
