xorg.conf

SaX2 setup my trackpad/mouse combo with the "mouse" driver which meant that my
external mouse (bluetooth as it happens) works fine and the basic functions of
the trackpad (movement, clicking, tapping) worked but I couldn't scroll or
adjust its settings.

The trackpad needs to use the "synaptics" driver with Option "SHMConfig" "on".
Furthermore, if that's then the only mouse specified, an external mouse no
longer works, so both need to be setup in xorg.conf and Option "SendCoreEvents"
"true" specified for which ever is Mouse[2] and the ServerLayout section
adjusted to include both.

Attaching my xorg.conf as an example.
