I have never seen a vaio where touchpad buttons where dependent on the
devices controlled with sony-laptop.ko.

I'd try with the input subsystem and the synaptics_usb driver first but
it's just a wild guess. Your kernel log should give you more hints about
which driver is bound to the device and the sysfs tree under
/sys/class/input/event*/device/* has all the capabilities and
identifiers.

Hope this helps.
