The current version of this (RC for 1.8, i.e. 1.7.99) breaks touchpad movements on some devices if libevdev isn't updated to the RC for 1.1

I added a libevdev-beta package that installs the 1.1-rc: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libevdev-beta/

Add 'libevdev' as a make dependency for Xorg 1.15

Could you please put the synaptics xorg config from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf?

Maybe also include

Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "3"
Option "TapButton3" "2"
Option "VertEdgeScroll" "on"
Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "on"
Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "on"
Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "on"
Option "CircularScrolling" "on"
Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
Option "EmulateTwoFingerMinZ" "40"
Option "EmulateTwoFingerMinW" "8"
Option "CoastingSpeed" "0"

in the inputclass section.

I think one should remove 11-x11-synaptics.fdi since udev is now preferred over hal.
