as far as tapping is concerned, that's the default behaviour see the
NOTES section in synaptics(4).
The additional scroll regions you mention, are they real regions or
just lines drawn on the touchpad? i.e.: what happens when you move you
finger on them?

(II) config/udev: Adding input device "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"
(/dev/input/event6)
looks like udev is adding the device. The package ships with
/lib/udev/rules.d/66-xorg-synaptics.rules
you're supposed to have it unless you removed it.

What does `synclient -l` report?
This is a bit odd:
(WW) "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad": unable to handle keycode 333
Not sure if it's an event sent from the extra scrolling regions you
mentioned (if they present as separate buttons).

Same software, same version same everything?
What does `synclient -l` report there?
