I've tried the workaround of editing the xorg.conf and adding the
dimensions of the trackpad. It worked but I still have to play with the
numbers a bit later.

Personally I don't think this is the right fix though. I'm pretty
comfortable editing the config files but there are a lot of users who
won't want to or be able to change these values.

I'm a Windows developer by trade but I understand the process of
debugging this stuff. I'm still willingly to take suggestions on other
things to try.

I was thinking about this bug at work today and the behavior where it
starts working after a suspend seemed odd to me. That combined with the
values i posted last night being the same before and after seems to
point to a program/driver that is interfering with the trackpad driver.
I'm betting that sometimes that interfering code isn't restarting after
a suspend and therefore doesn't get in the way. Just a thought.

Cheers
James
