I've been fighting with disabling touchpad and making middle button
scrolling work on my Dell Latitude E4300 for a couple of days now. One
problem for me was the fact that sometimes the kernel mouse driver lost
sync:

psmouse.c: DualPoint TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte
1

This caused the pointer devices to dissappear and reappear with
different names, e.g. "PS/2 Generic Mouse", "DualPoint Stick", "AlpsPS/2
ALPS DualPoint TouchPad", "PS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad" and the mouse
pointer occasionally jumping around when I accidentally touched the
touchpad while typing. The sync problem got apparently cured for me with
this: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/8/182

A reliable way to cause sync errors for me is to keep moving the pointer
with the pointing stick and simultaneously keep tapping the touchpad.

I'm running 64 bit Intrepid.
