I've got a Compal CL-50 laptop with Edgy installed. The edgy xorg
installation detected a generic mouse device, but there is no
vertical/horizontal scrolling when dragging a finger down the rhs/bottom
edge.

I googled about it and found a whole lot of info on a synaptic driver, which
i tried, but go no mouse at all.

Anyone know how to get this working?

Mine just worked automatically (Dell Inspiron 6400), and it is using the synaptics driver. That being said, only the vertical scroll zone is working, not the horizontal (which would be handy), so if you find a solution let me know. It's probably just related to correct configuration of the synaptics driver.

For your reference this is the input device section for my touchpad from my xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Synaptics Touchpad"
        Driver          "synaptics"
        Option          "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
        Option          "Protocol"              "auto-dev"
        Option          "HorizScrollDelta"      "0"
EndSection
