Thanks for the feedback, folks.

(In reference to the DellXPS kernel PPA
https://launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/+archive/dellxps  . . .)

@Simone, @psypher, @Chris Ian -

1. Please verify that you do have the latest PPA kernel version running.
Run 'uname -a' in a terminal window, and verify that its output includes
"#41+kamal2~DellXPS" (the new driver first appears in the "kamal2"
version).   You should not need to install any additional modules
(xserver-xorg-input-synaptics should already be installed on your system
by default).

2.  The trackpad should be detected and enabled automatically; you do
not need to do anything to "enable" it.  In a terminal window, run the
command 'xinput' and look for a line which says "CyPS/2 Cypress
Trackpad".   Do you see that line?  If not, please post the line(s) that
appear in the "Virtual core pointer" block, along with the output from
'uname -a'.

@psypher - You shouldn't need to have any customized Section
"InputClass" at all, in your X11 configuration.  Make sure you don't
have any enabled InputClass blocks in any file under /etc/X11/

@Chris Ian - Yes, this driver was developed specifically to enable the
Cypress trackpad in the Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook (to verify that our
machines are the same model, run 'sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name'
which should display "Dell System XPS L321X".

@Dennis, @Kyoungsoo - Thanks for your success reports.
