I'm on the 13" too.
On an unrelated note, I've found excellent support for multitouch gestures in the package touchegg. The version found by apt-get isn't the most recent, but if you compile the 1.0 version from source, you can customize gestures to your heart's content. I disabled the mtrack driver and went back to the default by removing dfacto's xorg.conf --- then used a wrapper startup script to relaunch touchegg if it should fail, since there seem to be some errors in the current version that cause segfaulting. Here's the script I run on startup:
#toucheggwrapper
#!/bin/bash
if [ ! `pidof toucheggwrapper` ] ; then
while true
do
if [ ! `pidof touchegg` ] ; then
touchegg
fi
sleep 5
done
fi
Unity 3d has some annoying gestures enabled by default, and I haven't found any way to disable them, so for now I run unity 2d, and touchegg handles all my gestures, including two finger scrolling. If you miss compiz effects in unity 2d, you can create a startup script to have compiz steal the window manager when you log in.
