Dell XPS 1530
Description:    Ubuntu 8.10
Release:        8.10
Codename:       intrepid
2.6.27-7-generic

Even after adding SHMConfig option in xorg.org, the touchpad still isn't 
recognized.  However tpconfig works
sudo tpconfig -i
Found Synaptics Touchpad.
Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode).
Sensor type: unknown (0).
Geometry: rectangular/landscape/up.
Packets: absolute, 80 packets per second.
Corner taps disabled;           no tap gestures.
Edge motion: none.
Z threshold: 6 of 7.
2 button mode; corner tap is right button click.

So I have to add i8042.nomux=1 at the end of the line including the kernal in 
the /boot/grub/menu.lst
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic root=** ro quiet splash 
i8042.nomux=1

Now the touchpad works.
