Thanks for replying. 

I guess I've not made myself clear.

I've tried: 

 - 2.6.18
 - 2.6.22
 - 2.6.24
 - 2.6.25
 - 2.6.26

As the newer kernels had been mentioned in the thread above, I thought
it overkill to mention those again. 

When using the synaptics driver, the trackpad-bug appears.

When using the Xorg 'mouse' driver, the trackpad keeps on working.

The culprit would IMHO seem to be the Synaptics driver, NOT the kernel. 

Kindest regards,
