I still have psmouse.proto=imps in the grub.conf file. Tapping and the 
scrollbar work with this command.

I have synaptics-0.13.5-5 installed, but don't know how to setup 
xorg.conf manually. A previous attempt configuring made X not startup.

grep Synaptics /proc/bus/input/devices
N: Name="ImPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"

xorg.conf attached
