That's only a warning though, so I'm not sure it's a real problem.  My config 
uses:
Section "InputDevice"
  Driver        "synaptics"
  Identifier    "Touchpad"
        Option          "CorePointer"
  Option        "Device"        "/dev/psaux"
  Option        "Edges"         "1900 5400 1800 3900"
  Option        "Finger"        "25 30"
  Option        "MaxTapTime" "20"
  Option        "MaxTapMove" "220"
  Option        "VertScrollDelta" "100"
  Option        "MinSpeed"      "0.02"
  Option        "MaxSpeed"      "0.18"
  Option        "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
EndSection

- drop the repeater and SHMConfig params (I actually have them but commented 
out - I'm guessing they caused a problem...)
