Well, lots of people claim to have gpm working properly with Dell/synaptics
touchpads (if you have the ALPS touchpad,  I can't help you), though I could
never make it work.  Though I would guess that if you _are_ using gpm you
shouldn't be using /dev/psaux.

I got the synaptics driver from mobilix.org, and it works beautifully with
no need for gpm.
