Might this be related to trackstick emulation mode?

>From man synaptics:
       Trackstick  emulation  mode is entered when pressing the finger hard on
       the touchpad.  The FingerPress parameter controls the minimum  required
       finger pressure.  If the finger hasn’t moved more than MaxTapMove after
       MaxTapTime has elapsed, trackstick mode is entered.  In this mode, mov‐
       ing  the  finger  slightly  in  any direction gives a speed vector that
       moves the pointer.  The TrackstickSpeed parameter  controls  the  ratio
       between pointer speed and finger movement distance.  Trackstick mode is
       exited when the finger pressure drops below FingerLow or when the  fin‐
       ger is moved further than MaxTapMove away from the initial position.

Try setting the aforementioned FingerPress option to an arbitarily high value, 
such as:
Options "FingerPress" "254"
