See http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-January/017689.html I have a patch too, which I'll post on request, but it's basically the same. I have the following issues with it: 1. It worked perfectly on my old laptop, but on my current laptop it doesn't detect the touchpad as a synaptics (it detects it as Microsoft Intellimouse) unless I change the order of probing in psm.c . 2. The scrollbar (mousewheel-substitute along right of touchpad) on my present laptop doesn't work. Without the patch, it has no effect; with the patch, it yields normal cursor up-down movement, and no left-right movement, no wheel effect. I plan to investigate further in a few days time. Others pointed out issues with this patch too: see http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-January/017782.html
