i tried loading "psmouse", which seems to detect a "synaptics
touchpad" on my laptop (i presume this is correct).

this seems to be enough for X to open /dev/input/mice successfully -
although scratching the pad doesn't make the pointer move at all.

loading "mousedev" claims to have loaded a "PS/2 mouse device common
for all mice", but this doesn't seem to be sufficient for X to load
/dev/psaux (no such device).


The Debian ALSA (user-space) packages don't yet cope with
modprobe.conf transparently either (/me pokes stevenk)
