Hello,

I got a notebook with synaptics touch pad.

dmesg:
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice

With Xfree I'm using synaptics driver. With 2.6.0-test11 cursor losts sync and
appers at random possition sometimes.
I have in log:
Nov 30 12:32:23 debian kernel: Synaptics driver resynced.

It does not happen with 2.4.22 kernel. Is there something I can try?
