Hi everyone.
I have a strange problem, that these days is a pin in my ass. My touchpad is not workig, and I need it because I am traveling alot. I checked the wiki. I tryed to set the touchpad via xorg.conf and hal, but it is not working.
That is what I am getting in my xorg log file:
(II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"
(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so
(EE) Failed to load module "synaptics" (module requirement mismatch, 0)
I have xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.0-1 installed on my machine.
Here is my xorg.conf:

I have Ati radein hd, and I am using catalyst 11 driver. I added: "IgnorePkg = xf86-video-vesa xorg-server xf86-input-evdev xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-mouse" in order to use the old xorg so I can use the catalyst new driver, and it is working. Is this the reason form my touchpad?
If you have some ideas, or you need more data, just ask.
Thank you all,
Regards.

You need the older synaptics driver.
xf86-input-synaptics-1.1.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
After downgrading, you should add xf86-input-synaptics to the IgnorePkg line.

Thank you, xdeusx. It is working.
