My synaptics driver for my touchpad will work after a fresh reboot,
because I added evdev to modules.preload. But as soon as I plug my
regular mouse in, the touchpad will cease to work until I reboot again.
I try modprobe evdev, but there is no change. My XFree86 config is
correct, because it worked fine before I upgraded from the 2.6.2 to
2.6.3 kernel. I checked it to make sure it was the same.
Any suggestions?

   

Here are my input device sections of XF86Config-4.

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier "Mouse1"
   Driver "synaptics"
   Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
   Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
   Option "MaxSpeed" "0.18"
   Option "MinSpeed" "0.02"
   Option "BottomEdge" "4000"
   Option "SHMConfig" "on"
   # Option "Repeater"      "/dev/ps2mouse"
   Option "LeftEdge" "1900"
   Option "FingerLow" "25"
   Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
   Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
   Option "FingerHigh" "30"
   Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
   Option "TopEdge" "1900"
   Option "RightEdge" "5400"
   Option "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier "Mouse2"
   Driver "mouse"
   Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
   Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
   Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
 

 

Here are mine:

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier "Mouse2"
   Driver "synaptics"
   Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
   Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
   Option "MinSpeed" "0.06"
   Option "MaxSpeed" "0.12"
   Option "BottomEdge" "4200"
   Option "SHMConfig" "on"
   # Option    "Repeater"    "/dev/ps2mouse"
   Option "LeftEdge" "1700"
   Option "FingerLow" "25"
   Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
   Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
   Option "FingerHigh" "30"
   Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
   Option "TopEdge" "1700"
   Option "RightEdge" "5300"
   Option "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier "Mouse1"
   Driver "mouse"
   Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
   Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
   Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
And my server layout:

Section "ServerLayout"
   Identifier "layout1"
   InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
   InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
   InputDevice "Mouse2" "AlwaysCore"
   Screen "screen1"
EndSection
I still think it has something to do with evdev, though.
