Getting the trackpoint and touchpad working simultaneously has been 
discussed in some detail on this before. You may want to check the list 
archives.

Attached is a XF86Config file that works with kernel 2.6 (with the 
Synaptics input driver), and XFree 4.3 (with the touchpad driver you 
reference above).

With this config, I have the trackpoint working (including the middle 
button, and scroll wheel emulation), and the touchpad working (including 
scroll wheel, etc.).

Good luck.
