Problems experienced in jaunty with the EEE PC 1000 touchpad that
weren't experienced in intrepid:

1) No longer able to click-and-drag on the touchpad alone. In Intrepid,
one could place one finger, quickly followed by another, move them
together in a direction (and then optionally lift one of the fingers)
and it would simulate a click and drag action.

2) Right click simulation difficult. On intrepid one simply tapped three
fingers simultaneously to simulate a right click. In Jaunty, this rarely
seems to work. When it does, your fingers need to be spread out, and one
must almost imediately lift two of the fingers and slide the remaining
one. Which is somewhat impractical. Note that the middle click
simulation with two fingers still works pretty well (but without being
able to select text with click-and-drag it's not that useful)

3) Overall mouse sensitivity has decreased: cursor moves a lot more
slowly.

What is still lacking, but wasn't available in Intrepid either, but
which is claimed to be supported by hardware:

1) Slow scrolling: By placing one finger, and moving another relative to
it, should induce a slower scrolling action that the (working) fast
scroll which involves moving both fingers together up/down.

2) Zooming in and out by spreading/pinching fingers.

3) Page up down by swiping hand across touchpad. I'm not sure how this
would work though
