The buttons on the clickpad on newer laptops are completely unusable without setting the AreaBottomLeft. Without AreaBottomLeft set anytime you try to click using the mouse buttons causes the cursor to move (especially difficult for double clicking). Setting the AreaBottomLeft works great but with AreaBottomLeft set using the 1.6.2 synaptics driver the right click and middle click buttons stop working. This bug has been fixed in 1.6.3+.
