I have a Compaq Presario with a Synaptics TouchPad. The interface is detected as PS/2 by the kernel and to work under X I had to make a symlink from /dev/psaux to /dev/mouse (or modify the XF86Config file by hand). Another point: probably is better to stop gpm (it seems that there are cases when it interferes with X).
