run xinput watch-props "device name" while syndaemon does its work. what values does the "Synaptics Off" property take? unless the -t flag is given to syndaemon, it should be the equivalent of TouchpadOff=1 And for 1.8 that should disable everything but physical clicks, so I'm unsure what happens here.
