Right now I'm working with this laptop and can't start experimenting brokenness again. I'm almost sure this problem will arise to anyone using a laptop with an integrated Synaptics Touchpad. linux-2.6.13 is not in Debian and I'm not going to compile it now. (The last time I tried 2.6.13 it broke for different reasons so I'm sticking with stock Debian linux kernel) I'll try to do some testing on Tuesday if possible. In the meantime if you don't find a solution maybe you should revert the change of conflicting with hotplug and upload to experimental instead. Prueba el Nuevo Correo Terra; Seguro, Rápido, Fiable.
