ibm t40 touchpad problem

I have a problem with ibm t40 touchpad.
I have installed synaptics package from repo, modified xorg.conf according to Wiki, but it doesn't work at all, I mean I can't use touchpad at all (mouse point doesn't move at all)
I can tell synaptics has been loaded:

[ganlu@Archlinux ~]$ sudo dmesg |grep Synaptics
Password:
Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 5.9, id: 0x2c6ab1, caps: 0x884793/0x0
serio: Synaptics pass-through port at isa0060/serio1/input0
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input8

and synclient can detect the move of my finger on the touchpad.

[ganlu@Archlinux ~]$ synclient -m 50

).

If I uninstall synaptics package, I can use the touchpad, only can't scroll pages.

there is my xorg.conf:
