I've got an XPS13 Kaby Lake model touchpad works well enough for me
using freebsddesktop/drm-next branch since months. I haven't tweaked the
xorg setting much yet but its definitely usable. I tried it with
moused_enable=YES in /etc/rc.conf and it is unusable. relevant settings
below.
# /boot/loader.conf
hw.psm.synaptics_support=1
# /etc/rc.conf.d/moused actually not required
moused_enable=NO
# /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/touchpad.conf

I believe most of the above came out of
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/50170/ and
https://www.tomek.cedro.info/freebsd-synaptics-trackpadtouchpad/ has
some info on 2 finger scrolling but I'm largely a keyboard user so
haven't progressed further.
