But it would be aweseome to have both enabled. Could someone
investigate?

I've written a patch for this:

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-x11/2014-November/015673.html

With this, I can have both

hw.psm.synaptics_support="1"
hw.psm.trackpoint_support="1"

in my /boot/loader.conf. I can control trackpoint settings such as speed 
or sensitivity while having the touchpad also enabled.

The patch might need some cleanup to land in the tree, but I've been 
happily using this for at least a year now :)
 
Actually, the patch looks pretty reasonable.  I'll test it and commit it if it works :-)

Thanks!
