evdev does not handle my touchpad correctly. Instead, it behaves like a
touchscreen. That is, when I tap some place on my touchpad, the cursor
will instantly move to the corresponding location on my screen when
evdev is being used. When this occurs, the cursor cannot be moved to
the top gnome-pa
So evdev handles your touchpad just fine? What exactly is fixed then?

It looks like a bit of HAL magic can fix it. I made X use synaptics by
copying /usr/share/doc/hal/examples/10-x11-input.fdi to
/etc/hal/fdi/policy and making a slight change because my ALPS touchpad
behaves like a touchscreen when evdev handles it.

Well, after I read the documentation, it looks like ALPS touchpads
aren't quite the same as Synaptics touchpads, and SHMConfig is insecure.
Perhaps a separate driver would be better? I'll see if there's a good
way to at least make scrolling work by default.
