Ubuntu Natty, 11.04 64bit
kernel 2.6.38 & 2.6.39 both act same way.
clean start:
⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ PS/2 Mouse                                id=12   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint                  id=13   [slave  pointer  (2)]
Scroll not working, upper right corner second click not working, tapping works 
- like in maverick

by commenting out in alps.c the dmi_system_id check (~line 145)
/*
        if (!dmi_check_system(dell_quirk_table))
                return -1;
*/
and doing the compile, it looks like:
⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ImPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint                    id=12   [slave  pointer  (2)]

scroll works, tapping works, up.left.button works - like its supposed to (i 
guess)
problems:
1. syslog says: alps.c: Enabled hardware quirk, falling back to psmouse-core 
(not a big deal)
2. sudo rmmod psmouse - machine crash  (not a big deal)
3. after suspend/hibernate when use mouse - machine crash - annoying (but 
avoidable)

by adding to alps.c: 
+       { { 0x73, 0x02, 0x64 }, 0xcf, 0xcf, ALPS_PASS | ALPS_DUALPOINT | 
ALPS_PS2_INTERLEAVED }, /* Dell Latitude E6510 */
the name of xinput -list changes to
⎜   ↳ ImPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad            id=14   [slave  pointer  (2)]
but all acts same way with them 3.points
