1. The mouse cursor froze only for synaptic touchpad ( cursor was working fine
with mouse and pc tablet). Which was solved with:
#echo "options psmouse proto=imps" > /etc/modprobe.d/modules.conf
2. Classic *nix highlight text to copy and right+left click to paste
stopped working, This is also applicable in between applications using
mouse. 50-synaptics.conf reads like:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Driver "synaptics"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "TapButton1" "1"

Option "CoastingSpeed" "0
# This option is recommend on all Linux systems using evdev, but cannot be
# enabled by default. See the following link for details:

EndSection

Identifier "touchpad ignore duplicates"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchOS "Linux"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/mouse*"

3. Disabled the touchpad section in 10-evdev.conf which has no effect.
4. Right side scrolling and double-finger scrolling stopped working
(working fine earlier)
5. synclient -l reports "Couldn't find synaptics properties. No
synaptics driver loaded?" although the drivers are loaded as follows:
