Exact same system model and Synaptics device. We're interested in getting the top two physical buttons working. xev does not even register anything when the buttons are pressed. List of things attempted:
1. xserver-xorg-input-synaptics breaks the touchpad altogether when installed, under-touchpad ones no longer register a central button 2.
