I had the same problems until I did the following two things:
1) Recompiled the XF86 module for the touchpad (there are docs for this on the Internet)
2) created the new sys filesystem
Modify /etc/fstab
add line:
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
and create directory
/sys
*The above sys stuff is borrowed from an earlier post from Anderson
Silva* (just giving credit)
