Was the kernel upgraded? Check dmesg. Is the kernel module getting
loaded? Is it saying anything on boot? All we know right now is that X
can't find it.
synaptics touchpad works fine on my acer travelmate with 2.6.12 kernel
and xorg @ testing (i'm using the synaptics module in xorg). i don't
recall any problems, even before using synaptics module in xorg. just
worked as an ordinary mouse, iirc. i am not sure about the kernel
config, the only thing related to *TOUCH* i could find is
CONFIG_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN=y
that is recognized as
ts: Compaq touchscreen protocol output
however i don't know whether it's relevant in this case or not.
