Running script after X starts

I disable the touchpad on my Thinkpad T43 by giving the command
sudo synclient TouchpadOff=1
I've tried putting
/usr/bin/synclient TouchpadOff=1
in /etc/rc.d/rc.local but this doesn't seem to work,
I assume because it is run before X starts.
I've also tried adding various lines in my "SynapticsTouchPad" stanza
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , but none of these have had the desired effect.
How can one add a script to be run after X starts?
Or is there some other way of turning off my touchpad,
and using the pointer instead?
I'm running Fedora-11 + KDE.
