well, about the usb, I'm fighting it myself here... but my synaptics works
perfectly. Here is how I installed:
1. Download (and install) the package
xfree86-driver-synaptics_0.13.2-1_i386.deb (mine I got grom the unstable
distribution)
2. etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (the "..." means that there probably is something else
in theis space 8-)):
Section "Module"
...
Load "synaptics"
EndSection
...
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"

theoretically, now you will have all the functions your mouse provides, like
scrolling and some anoying functions that make mozilla to go back and forward
on the pages it shows 8-)
I hope it hslps you
