Xorg not registering synaptics touchpad

Hi, I'm having an odd problem here. Every so often when I boot my netbook (Acer aspire one 110) my touchpad loses all it's settings. The xorg log shows this

[    14.387] (II) config/udev: Adding input device PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad (/dev/input/event10)
[    14.387] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Applying InputClass "evdev pointer catchall"
[    14.387] (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'
[    14.387] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/evdev_drv.so

[    14.410] (--) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Found relative axes
[    14.410] (--) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Found x and y relative axes
[    14.410] (II) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Configuring as mouse
[    14.410] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
[    14.410] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200
[    14.410] (**) Option "config_info" "udev:/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio2/input/input10/event10"
[    14.410] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" (type: MOUSE)
[    14.411] (II) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: initialized for relative axes.
[    14.411] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1
[    14.411] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: (accel) acceleration profile 0
[    14.411] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: (accel) acceleration factor: 2.000
[    14.411] (**) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: (accel) acceleration threshold: 4

[    14.413] (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)

so it seems to be loading settings from 10-evdev.conf even though the touchpad lines are commented out. Commenting out the pointer lines stops the touchpad from working at all!

[    51.924] (II) config/udev: Adding input device PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad (/dev/input/event10)
[    51.924] (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)

[    51.925] (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)

For reference when the touchpad is working correctly the xorg log is thus

This error seems to happen at random. Anyone know what's going on?
