@Ricky: That makes sense. The other aspect is that the "synaptics" xorg driver is used for many types of touch pads, right? Of course I am realizing that it no longer supports only Synaptics brand touch pads. I gather it supports ALPS and the Apple MacBook trackpad as well by receiving touchpad-model-independent events from the kernel module.
