Hi,
you reported a problem with the synaptics driver not reporting any
events for your touchpad.
Can you attach the contents of /proc/bus/input/devices to this bug?
Also, please test with the packages from testing (you would need to
downgrade your video driver, input drivers and xserver-xorg-core), and
if that works please attach the Xorg log.
The information so far in this bug only shows that a previous version of
synaptics couldn't load with xserver 1.4 due to unresolved symbols,
but nothing showing the driver works on your systems, unless I've missed
something.
Mattia, do you have an idea about this bug? It's currently one of the
few blockers for getting an updated X in testing.
Cheers,
Julien
