Bug Description

Since upgrading to xorg-server 1.15, touchpad acceleration behaves erratically. Horizontal acceleration is much more pronounced than vertical acceleration, which makes the cursor difficult to control.

This bug is already fixed by an upstream commit (http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input-synaptics/commit/?id=0fb59b3487d57523a03f078a2061e2ea0cacbc7c).
