I have a laptop that has a problem with the touchpad: if hitting a key
combination the synaptics touchpad loses the synchronization and it
reconnects.
this is the log output in kern.log:

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

psmouse.c: issuing reconnect request
Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 6.3, id: 0x1a0b1, caps: 0xa04713/0x200000
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /class/input/input19

The windows driver is smarter, and can handle device disconnections,
while the synaptics xorg driver (I have version 0.14.6) once the
device is disconnected, it treats it as a normal mouse after the
reconnection (no scroll, different acceleration, no finger
combinations,...)
