Debugging input issue (4-finger tap freezes input on apple trackpad)

Hi,

I've just noticed that my Apple Magic Trackpad in conjunction with bcm2048 freezes, when tapped with 4 fingers (I've been observing these freezes for a while, however never been able to figure out what triggers them).

Now, I'm willing to make a bug-report, however I don't know which component is affected (it may be bcm2048 driver, magicmouse driver, etc.). By now, I only checked xev and observed, that 4-finger tap is not interpreted by xev at all. However, I'm not able to make a conclusion, I don't have even basic idea how input works in linux.

What would you suggest to do to figure out, which component is affected?

Thanks.
