Same here:
Asus UL30A + Ubuntu 9.10 and still not working:

- Touchpad Elantech Smartpad recognised as Logitech Ps\2 mouse

This Touchpad issue is really anoying because you can use synaptics-touchpad capabilities. For example I can change the "sensitivity" of my touchpad and this is pretty anoying when typing and accidentally touching the pad.

Otherwise, everything else works pretty fine after all the workarounds discussed here.
