hmmm... try to take a look around, I already heard about many different
buttons.
Also try to read (if you haven't already) the docs in
/usr/share/doc/xfree86-driver-synaptics/ maybe the solution is already
there :)

I don't really know if it's a problem with the synaptics driver o X,
I'll try to investigate. You could try to look at the output of
synclient to undestand how the driver feels your buttons:

# synclient -m 100
 time     x    y   z f  w  l r u d m     multi  gl gm gr gdx gdy
0.000  1651 3532   0 0  0  0 0 0 0 0  00000000   0  0  0   0   0

                           | | | +--> Down
                           | | +--> Up
                           | +--> Right
                           +--> Left

There's a FAQ in the docs that suggests how to reorder buttons for the
touchpad. Might help :)

The whole stuff is currently documented in the already mentioned
directory. Adding that section by default needs some more integration
with the xserver packages. Also, If the kernel isn't correctly
configured the presence of the synaptics configuration stuff might
prevent X from starting and that's not nice at all... (detecting the
touchpad in 2.4 kernels is not trivial and reliable also)
