Hi
I recently installed FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE on my Compaq Presario 2656AU.
It has a synaptics touchpad, but the mouse gets recognised as an
IntelliMouse.

It works, but the scroll area is way to wide, and button 6 and 7 gets
activated if i scroll fast vertically.
I tried commenting out all the IntelliMouse stuff in psm.c and
rebuild. This resulted in the mouse being correctly recognised as a
synaptics. Setting
hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" and installing the synaptics X driver
from ports in addition made the touchpad works perfectly.
