Elantech touch pad can't be configured on Dell Inspiron 11Z which make the laptop unusable since it's too sensitive.
It seems like Dell mini 10 (not 10v) is also having this issue.

Here is the driver for windows on dell's website:

Here is a link to Elan's site - http://www.emc.com.tw/eng/tpn_sp_fun.asp
it say on their site that it's should work with linux.

I found this link - http://arjan.opmeer.net/elantech/
