Sounds like a synaptics/hal/Xorg problem. Things to try out:

1. synaptics does not seem to be running

2. add a manual fdi file in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/, there might be
something odd preventing synaptics to load

3. Disable mouseemu, seems to be running

4. grep bcm5974 /proc/bus/input/devices, to make sure the device is
there (although this seems to be a different problem)

Cheers,
Henrik
