debian squeeze fully updated. No xorg.conf file, it's SUPPOSED to be using HAL. Here's my /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi file:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>             
<deviceinfo version="0.2">                               
  <device>                                               
    <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
      <!-- do not use the synaptics driver for devices advertising
           themselves as keyboards -->                           
      <match key="info.capabilities" contains_not="input.keyboard">
          <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
          <!-- Arbitrary options can be passed to the driver using     
               the input.x11_options property since xorg-server-1.5. -->
          <!-- EXAMPLES:                                               
          Switch on shared memory, enables the driver to be configured at runtime                                                                               
          <merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">true</merge>   

          Maximum movement of the finger for detecting a tap
          <merge key="input.x11_options.MaxTapMove" type="string">0</merge>
          <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">0</merge>
          <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">0</merge>
          <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string">0</merge>
          Enable vertical scrolling when dragging along the right edge     
          <merge key="input.x11_options.VertEdgeScroll" type="string">true</merge>                                                                             

          Enable vertical scrolling when dragging with two fingers anywhere on the touchpad                                                                     
          <merge key="input.x11_options.VertTwoFingerScroll" type="string">true</merge>                                                                         

          Enable horizontal scrolling when dragging with two fingers anywhere on the touchpad                                                                   
          <merge key="input.x11_options.HorizTwoFingerScroll" type="string">true</merge>                                                                       

          If on, circular scrolling is used
          <merge key="input.x11_options.CircularScrolling" type="string">true</merge>                                                                           

          For other possible options, check CONFIGURATION DETAILS in synaptics man page                                                                         
          -->                                                                   
      </match>                                                                 
    </match>                                                                   
  </device>                                                                     
</deviceinfo>

try adding this entry:

<merge key="input.x11_options.TouchpadOff" type="string">2</merge>

Form the man page:

Option "TouchpadOff" "integer"
Switch off the touchpad. Valid values are:

0 Touchpad is enabled
1 Touchpad is switched off
2 Only tapping and scrolling is switched off
Property: "Synaptics Off"
