Now (i assume you use xorg .4 with hal) iit depends on hal's fdi, the easy way it's to cp /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/x11-synaptics.fdi or something similar to you /etc/hal/fdi/policy directory, putting in there what you have in xorg.conf according to the examples in the fdi.
Hope this works, bye
