Do you mean touchpad ?
If yes, then you might want to look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics
PS - I just installed xf86-input-synaptics and restarted my system, for mine to work.

OK more info it is installed and the only os i can get the touchpad to work on is ubuntu and it has most of the same packages in it. Just I forgot how probe the input system to find a work around for it.

Solution: echo blacklist i2c_hid > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
I have exact the same problem, after some Google search found this solution and it worked. No idea why this would work.
