Seems like Santiago's Synaptics Touchpad is not being recognized by the kernel.
I am having same problem. Xorg.0.log says that no synaptics event device found.
Doing dmesg | grep 'Synaptics' does not give anything. This is with
linux-image-2.6.10-5-686. However, sometimes my touchpad gets recognised.
Yesterday linux-image-2.6.10-4-686 recognized it. But I don't know if the kernel
recognizes my touchpad randomly or it was the version 2.6.10-4-686 that
recognized it as I've been updating my hoary everday. Warty never recognized my
touchpad but Gentoo used to recognized it.

Maybe this should be a separate bug?
