@Sarvatt, is there anything we should do on the -synaptics end for this
bug? When we looked at the issue previously it did not seem like
XRecord was easily fixable for this usage; are there any new ideas on
what we might do (even if just papering over it...)?

Title:
syndaemon polls 5 times a second even though it is started with the -R
XRecord extension option

Bug description:
syndaemon is polling at 5Hz even on an idle system. It is waking up
the CPU and wasting power.
However, it is running with -R option that should enable it to use
XRecord which avoids polling, so I believe gnome-settings-daemon is
doing the right thing. This used to work, I believe it was fixed for
natty (see bug #633125), so it is a regressed on Oneric and it is also
broken in Precise (I checked against today's daily build).
