Cursor does not move left/right using touchpad on 2.6.22-20080123.4 and newer master kernels

[Ixo X oxI]

FYI,
   I am one of the support-gang volunteer, and a recent startup "XO Repair
Center".  And I was shipped a XO for repair..  which has this this exact
problem.  It is original build 656.

It is untouched since I received it, and reproduce the problem at anytime.
The 'four-finger-touchpad-reset' does not fix the problem.  USB mouse works
fine.

If I can do any reporting or testing to help diagnose the problem, I'd be
happy to collect data. I was also thinking this laptop could be a good
candidate for dissembly, and can take special notes, troubleshooting,  or
pictures if needed.
