Step 5 grabs a couple of dependencies needed to compile it. Might solve the problems Saïvann Carignan is seeing.

1. Download Synaptics source from:
http://web.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad/index.html
2. Extract the files
3. Change eventcomm.c according to the patch
(Run patch, or manually paste the rows in the EventDeviceOffHook method)
4. Run 'sudo apt-get install libxext-dev libx11-dev'
5. Run 'make'
6. Run 'sudo cp synaptics_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/'
7. Reboot
