As described in the kernel config help file (I'll need to find a more visible
location for this), you need to use an XFree86 driver from
http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad/index.html
to get all the nice features the touchpad can do or alternately use
psmouse_noext
on the kernel command line to restore previous behavior.
