Another glitch from the 7.2->7.3 update: my Synaptics tough pad stopped
working concurrently with my USB mouse.
For 6.9 or 7.2, this would work:
InputDevice "Synaptics_Touchpad" "AlwaysCore"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
For 7.3, the tough pad does not work and reports:
(**) Synaptics_Touchpad: doesn't report core events
On the Gentoo forum, I found this for 7.3:
InputDevice "Synaptics_Touchpad" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "SendCoreEvents"
It works -- just in case anyone else is investigating the same problem.
For 7.2, I could reuse my 6.9 xorg.conf with some paths changed, but for
7.3, quite a bit seems to have changed...

Jan Henrik
