It can be found there: http://zinc.ubuntu.com/git?p=mid-team/hardy-netbook.git;a=blob;f=drivers/input/mouse/elantech.c;h=d0e2cafed162428f72e3654f4dda85e08ea486b3;hb=refs/heads/abi-22 By inspecting the source code, and doing some test on a real hardware, I have completed the protocol specification (especially for the 6 bytes protocol). It also adds information about the mapping between the version reported by the device and the protocol to use.
