I'm running 2.6.1 with apm enabled on my T40 machine. The synaptics pad
gets recognized through boot:

  Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1
 Firmware: 5.9
 Sensor: 44
 new absolute packet format
 Touchpad has extended capability bits
 -> multifinger detection
 -> palm detection
 -> pass-through port
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad on isa0060/serio1
serio: Synaptics pass-through port at isa0060/serio1/input0
input: PS/2 Generic Mouse on synaptics-pt/serio0

but unfortunateley, i can only use the two buttons of the touchpad and
the ultranav is disabled (especially the third mouse button).

I'm using the newest Xfree driver and well, Xfree recognizes my
touchpad, but it don't seem to work like with 2.4 kernels.

If someone got that right without disabling the touchpad, i want to hear
how. I don't know, what is missing ...
