I've been trying to get the right-hand scroll area on my touchpad to work, without success. I assume the modifications I need to make are within xorg.conf, but I really don't understand all that arcane X'ery. Some help with this would be really appreciated.
Here is my current xorg.conf:

have you looked at:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics
?
That page should explain how to get it working.

Indeed: following that wiki entry to the letter works for me.

@ Thunar:
I have a hp dv9920us which needs the synaptics touchpad to work. I found this touchpad a bit more difficult to configure than my last hp dv4230us touchpad.
This is what works for me in my XF86Confg (xorg.conf for nvidia).
Section "InputDevice"

Driver "synaptics"

Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"

# Option "Repeater" "/dev/ps2mouse"
EndSection
... I also had to use the System-->--Preferences-->--Mouse settings to make it feel perfect.
these are my other sections:

Load "synaptics"
EndSection
