less /usr/share/doc/synaptics-*/README.gz

My guess is that you'll want to set MaxSpeed to something much larger. 
But I don't use this driver, so I can't help much here.

I don't think so. I did look at xset, and experiment but saw no effect.  Also, 
it's only the touchpad that has the problems.  My USB mouse works at "normal 
speed".

Also, I neglected to provide the relevant xorg.conf setting.

Section "InputDevice"
  Identifier   "touchpad"
  Driver   "synaptics"
  Option   "Device" "/dev/input/event1"
  Option   "Protocol" "event"
  Option   "LeftEdge" "1700"
  Option   "RightEdge" "5300"
  Option   "TopEdge" "1700"
  Option   "BottomEdge" "4200"
  Option   "FingerLow"  "25"
  Option   "FingerHigh" "30"
  Option   "MaxTapTime" "180"
  Option   "MaxTapMove"  "220"
  Option   "VertScrollDelta" "100"
  Option   "MinSpeed" "0.06"
  Option   "MaxSpeed" "0.12"
  Option   "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
  Option   "SHMConfig" "on"
EndSection


Any help is appreciated.

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.
