... (II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 0.14.5 (-) ...
The first number is the VERSION which is displayed correctly 0.14.5, but

second number is displayed wrong, it should be 1405 for synaptics driver version 0.14.5 and should be 1404 for synaptics driver version 0.14.4. So the offending part is on the definition of the VERSION_ID.
So you're saying libsynaptics doesn't work at all just because the driver version is not displayed correctly? Whoow...
Indeed, and actually what the driver displayed was this on XOrg log file was the following: ... (II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 0.14.5 (-1211412805) ... So at the time libsynaptics checked for the driver version, it reported: -121141.-28.-5 which caused it to "fail" as supported version numbers didn't match
Plase include this "fix" on the next update release of the driver, heres the
text containing the patch:
Please create a bug report and attach your patch.
I'll do, thanks for pointing me to the right place :-) I cannot entirely assure you that we will use this fix, as the next
version of SuSE Linux will use the modularized X tree. For service packs and updated packages it is up to Stefan whether he thinks the problem is severe enough to be addressed.
Well, whenever the first alpha comes out, I'll check to see if the problem is still there (and it's caused by the same "stuff") and submit a new bugreport, or point to the bug report I submitted.
I didn't knew where to send this, so I opted for the mailing list in hopes
that some SUSE folks see it and included the "fix", If this needs to be sent somewhere else, I'll gladly do, just tell me where, jeje ;-)
Thanks
Matthias
