I'm sorry about this. It's been happing on my HP Envy as well. I'm leaning towards it actually being a problem with the xf86-input-synaptics' use of it because the 'upstream' patch is still the same on the opensuse website for 2.6.39 however they are still on the 1.3 version of the xorg driver. Unfortunately I don't actually have physical access to the laptop, so it's been really hard to debug. Please let me know if you are able to come up with anything.

After installing this package and updating the latest xf86-synaptics-clickpad sometimes all of a sudden (at random) the screen goes black with lots of log text related to synaptics-led. I can only hard shut down. Upon restarting there no display even at BIOS POST screen. It is only when I hard shut down 2nd time and restart does the display gets restores.

Updated.
If anyone has any experience with the kernel's make, I have some questions:
1) I thought you could set a kconfig option on the commandline but it doesn't seem to work. I was trying make MOUSE_PS2_SYNAPTICS_LED=y ... and also make CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_SYNAPTICS_LED=y, but neither seemed to work.
2) Is there a better way to do this than rsync the /usr/src/$KERNEL/ directory over the kernel source? I tried various combinations of -C M=, and even SUBDIRS, but I couldn't figure it out. Either the module wouldn't build because there were missing components in the src, or there would be permissioning issues.

It works!!!1one
I'm open to discussion about how to handle the kernel version. I think the 2.6.* (or 3.*) releases are sufficient and we won't need to worry about point releases, unless someone confirms that the mouse modules are touched in a point release. In fact they don't even change much between major releases, but I think I'll try to always bump for a major release.
I can also change the PKGBUILD to rebuild the module for each kernel installed on the system that has headers in /usr/src/ but that will complicate the kernel download and possibly the patch file.
As kernel versions increase, if the patch file needs changing, I'll try to leave the old versions in the source pkg so people can use it.
Enjoy!

This not ready to be used, I just wanted to get it uploaded. I haven't tested it or added the config files. The config files will be copied directly from the kernel26 package. I think I'll need to add an install file with runs depmod also.
In the future it might be nice to set up this package so that it will build the module for all installed kernels (or all installed kernels which have headers installed).
