I added palm detection capability to the driver. It does not report pressure, 
but reports width.
This capability was partialy in Mathias' driver, but then it was removed, 
because of some complaints for some models.
Now I pass width data to userspace and it can be turned on or off.

The driver is in

ppa:hanipouspilot/focaltech-dkms-staging

To turn palmdetection on Ubuntu run

synclient PalmDetect=1 PalmMinZ=0

Also you can set there 'PalmMinWidth' to something. Sizes supported 1-7,
everything higher than 7 use hardware palmdetection threshold. I set it
to 5, and it looks OK for my fingers.

In addition syndaemon can be used to increase timeout to disable touchpad while 
typing. Default value of 0.5 sec is too low in many cases.
You will need to turn off that setting in mouse properties and run

syndaemon -i 2 -tKRd

where 2 is timeout in seconds.
