 What's the likely hood this a hardware problem that only shows itself in

 Do you have any better luck of you disable CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX
 and use /dev/input/mice insead?  It WFM.

Your suggestion reminded me to try a more recent kernel.  That has improved 
things tremendously.

Now, the touch pad works, but movement is *very* slow.  A full width move on 
the touchpad is about 50 pixels.  I've tried playing with the various 
synaptic settigns (synclient), but I can't seem to adjust this in any way I 
can recognize.
