Why not enable it in xorg itself - from memory you can look for a file
like /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf (or possibly in
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf or similar)
Then ensure that you have a section like:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Driver "synaptics"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "2"
Option "TapButton3" "3"
Option "VertEdgeScroll" "on"
EndSection
When you boot you should have touchpad buttons available even at the
KDM greeter stage for login - (I guess same for GDM though I am a KDE
user only)
I have been doing this for several years with my laptops....
