Hi Eric, usually a touch pad is using the same PS/2 port an external PS/2 mouse is using (/dev/psaux). My HP Omnibook does some scanning at bootup. If the external mouse is connected it disables the touch pad. If I boot it without the mouse and connect the mouse after bootup, both - touch pad and mouse - work simultaneously.
