BTW, should we change the fdi to load synaptics instead of evdev when it
detects a touchpad?  It seems most people are using that.

I'm using evdev right now on my laptop, but I need to run xinput to set
the device to relative mode every time I start X (and I had to modify
xinput to let me do that, because it doesn't think my touchpad is an
extended device).

Cheers,
Julien
