[solved]X-Trys but Alps Touchpad-scrolling isn't working

#EDIT
I am stupid...
the problem was solved 3 post under the mine, It was the same solution [false x/y coordinates]
#/EDIT

voilà my first post in the archlinux forum.
a heartful hello to the community, it's sad that my first post is looking for help but i hope that you'll excuse me
problem:
1. problem, when i use in my xorg.conf

Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"

it isn't even reacting... no input in /dev/input/mouse2 either...
when i put

Option "Protocol" "alps"

it works, i can tap and control the mouse. input comes in /dev/input/mouse2 BUT the scroll doesen't work. also with all options

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Synaptics Touchpad"
    Driver         "synaptics"
    Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse2"
   Option "Protocol" "alps"
   Option "LeftEdge" "1700"     #was 130
   Option "RightEdge" "5300"    #was 840
   Option "TopEdge" "1700"      #was 130
   Option "BottomEdge" "4200"   #was 640
   Option "FingerLow" "25"
   Option "FingerHigh" "30"
   Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
   Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
   Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "75"
   Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
   Option "HorizScrollDelta" "100"
   Option "MinSpeed" "0.60"
   Option "MaxSpeed" "1.10"
   Option "AccelFactor" "0.030"
   Option "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "200"
   Option "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "200"
Option "UpDownScrolling" "1"
#   Option "CircularScrolling" "1"
#   Option "CircScrollDelta" "0.1"
#   Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
   Option "SHMConfig" "on"
   Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"   
    #Option "TapButton2"    "2"
#Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "false"
#Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "false"
EndSection

+ trying to set the settings by synclient or gsynaptics doesn't help either...

the weird thing is, that under ubuntu it works like a charm and the use of ubuntu settings doesn't help either...
and this drives mad

but generally I'm very happy with arch. It's great
sincerly Eddy
