I made more tests and I found something else. The size reported with the
firmware 2.1 is 106x64mm whereas with the v2.0 the size is 98x64mm. The 2.1 is
cleary wrong as the touchpad width is about 100mm but I think the v2.0 is right
because I just noticed that there is a 5mm unsensitive zone at the bottom of
the touchpad. I guess it's designed on purpose to avoid triggering some
movement when you click. Since the zone is insensitive every click here is
perfect as long as you not move out the zone. 

So I won't use the v2.1 as it's an unofficial firmware and Dudley Du recommend
the v2.0 that was validated by Google. I simply have to use the provided
unsensitive zone to click. I'm really surprised that I didn't saw this earlier.
It's the measure vs the size reported that make me discover this.

I don't think it's needed to modify anything. I will do more test just to be
sure and come back to you if needed but I really think that, since I didn't
know that there was an unsensitive zone, I triggered the movement each time I
clicked outside the zone. Probably nothing to do with the setting or even the
firmware :D I just tested with synatics and the movement is present when I
click outside the zone too. It was probably just a coincidence if I thought the
touchpad behave differently depending on the driver, the firmware or the
settings !

Thank you Peter and sorry for the inconvenience ;)
