elantech touchpad problem

Hello, I have Laptop Corrino form NTT with Elantech touchpad. I have problem becouse it's seem that it is recognise as Logitech Mouse.
I'm now fresh after re install of system. When I move my finger the coursor is clicking and spining threw the screen. When in old system I have arch and kdemod after one minut (sometimes less sometimes more) it start to work normally ("kde magic"), but now when i try fluxbox it don't stop. I read about some patch to kernel about that but is there must be some easier whay to do that becouse under kdemod it seem to work after while. I try many xorg configns and have no idea how to fix it.

p.s. sorry for my english it's not my native language

Re: elantech touchpad problem

I try both settings and everything on this site. It was first place where i look for help.

I found this http://arjan.opmeer.net/elantech/ but i there is no patch for actual arch kernel verion and i don't know how to use it.

there is line

echo -n 0x16 > /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio?/reg_10

but the line doesn't exist in arch mayby you know where is it?
