Hello, my name is Matthew Gibson.

I use an Acer Aspire One netbook running FreeBSD 8.0 Release and gnome 2.28.
I have updated all of my ports as of the date of the release of freebsd 8.

It seems like every since I upgraded my system, my touchpad doesn't register
taps on the touchpad as mouse clicks. Do you know why this would be? This
obviously also removes double clicks and drags using the touchpad. I can
still do those things using the buttons below the touchpad.

Here is the output of sysctl hw.psm.synaptics:

And here is the relavent lines from xorg.conf:
