In 2.5/2.6 /dev/psaux has become a legacy option which you have to select 
during kernel configuration. A good idea is to configure your X server to use 
"/dev/input/mice". This way you only need one entry in your X server 
configuration for all of your input devices and if you decide to add or 
remove devices you won't need to restart X. I have a touchpad, graphics 
tablet and USB mouse working like this, and use them simultaneously. ^_^

Cheers!  That should make things a little easier.

I'm not sure if it works if you use the synaptics driver to use your 
touchpad.. I gave up using the synaptics driver on my ALPS pad because 
"features" like sticky button got on my nerves.

Nope, not using that.  This is an *old* lappy.
