New description:

 Synaptics is now making touchpads that have one "physical" button which is
 the whole pad. To determine if a click is on the left or right side, the
 buttons are part of the touchpad and the synaptics driver detects where
 the finger is placed (this works due to multi-touch support)

 Known laptop models with this clickpad:
 * Dell Inspiron Mini 10v
 * Asus UX31A
 * Asus UX32A
 * HP series 4500 ProBooks
 * ThinkPad X220
 * ThinkPad X1


 By default, the whole pad is detected as the left mouse button.. so basic
 functionality exsists.

Comment:

 I have an Asus ultrabook that has the same clickpad... adjusting
 description to be more generic.
