It's a GUI application which sits in the system tray of desktop environments that support that, whereas syndaemon is a command line utility. Touchfreeze is a (limited) replacement for {k,q}synaptics, which were developed by (to best of my knowledge) the same person/people, which have since been declared abandonware and removed from Debian [0]. [0] http://bugs.debian.org/468941 Fathi Boudra intended to package touchfreeze, but didn't do so. I contacted pkg-kde-extras team and co-ordinated to help maintain it under their maintenance umbrella [1].
