After reading this I went and rechecked the 2.4 behaviour, in fact the
interrupts seem to work more or less the same on 2.6 and 2.4 producing
aproximately the same number of interrupts and stopping both 1 second after.
You are right, when I reported the bug I had tested 2.4 with the normal
driver and not the synaptics driver for X, sorry, I didn't know the X driver
could change the interrupt behaviour.

Well, to sum up, for what I see looking at /proc/interrupts both 2.4 using
the X synaptics driver, and 2.6 using the synaptics driver, produce
aproximately the same interrupt behaviour, however 2.6 looses sync when acpi
is compiled and works ok when acpi is not compiled :-(

Hope this clarifies the thing a little bit, sorry about the inexactitudes in
the first report.

If you need any other info or want me to make any tests just tell me.

Regards...
