"Modern" touchpads V2

Ubuntu 10.10 came out about 2 weeks ago. There were no big changes, at least no visibly remarkable ones. However, some things that worked in 10.04 stopped working in Maverick. One example are the new Synaptic ClickPads integrated into many of the newer notebooks such as my HP TouchSmart tm2-1090eg. According to the comments in Bug #582809, the psmouse driver module does not correctly recognize the ClickPad and treats it as a "regular" Synaptics Touchpad. Fortunately, someone going by the name of "pauls" uploaded a patched source archive for the psmouse module and posted a detailed guide how to install the new module.
I tried it and it works™!
Here's how (copied from pauls' comment in the linked bug report):
Note: You need root privileges to do most of the things

1. Download the patched source archive

   Code:
   $ wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/582809/+attachment/1675262/+files/psmouse-2.6.35-22-generic-patched.tar.bz2

2. Unpack the source to /usr/src/

   Code:
   $ tar -xjv -C /usr/src/ -f psmouse-2.6.35-22-generic-patched.tar.bz2

3. Install dkms

   Code:
   $ apt-get install dkms

4. Add the source to dkms, build it and install the module

   Code:
   $ dkms add -m psmouse -v 2.6.35-22-generic
   $ dkms build -m psmouse -v 2.6.35-22-generic
   $ dkms install -m psmouse -v 2.6.35-22-generic

5. Reboot.
   

You can always check wether the module is installed using

Code:
$ dkms status -m psmouse -v 2.6.35-22-generic

If the module is not installed, You can use the steps again to rebuild and reinstall it.
You can also remove the module when a fixed kernel has been released:

Code:
$ sudo dkms uninstall -m psmouse -v 2.6.35-22-generic
$ sudo dkms remove -m psmouse -v 2.6.35-22-generic --all
