I don't know why I keep forgetting to include essential information. Sorry. cristi:~# uname -a FreeBSD hades 7.0-RC1 FreeBSD 7.0-RC1 #0: Mon Dec 24 10:10:07 UTC 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 cristi:~# pkg_info | grep xorg-server xorg-server-1.4_3,1 X.Org X server and related programs cristi:~# pkg_info | grep synaptics synaptics-0.14.6_2 The Synaptics touchpad X driver Suppose I use the attached xorg.conf file, at some point, /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows the following error: (II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 0.14.6 (1406) Synaptics_Touchpad no synaptics event device found (checked 10 nodes) Synaptics_Touchpad The /dev/input/event* device nodes seem to be missing (EE) xf86OpenSerial: No Device specified. Synaptics driver unable to open device (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics_Touchpad" (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics" As you said, it looks like synaptics is trying to use the "auto" protocol, although the configuration file tells it to use "psm". Now, if I put the attached patch in x11-drivers/synaptics/files, using the same xorg.conf, synaptics will fail like this: (II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 0.14.6 (1406) (EE) xf86OpenSerial: No Device specified. Synaptics driver unable to open device (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics_Touchpad" (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics" It almost looks as if I have to hardcode the device too, because synaptics certainly ignores my options. Any ideas?
