Description Luke Jones 2015-11-22 04:38:53 CET 
Description of problem:

Synaptics touchpad does not function correctly after update to Cauldron. Appears to be related to incorrect detection?

Is fixed by including the following contents in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "touchpad catchall"
        Driver "synaptics"
        MatchIsTouchpad "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Option "TapButton1" "1"
        Option "TapButton2" "2"
        Option "TapButton3" "3"
    Option "ClickPad"   "true"
    Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "0"
    Option "AreaBottomEdge" "4000"
    Option "SoftButtonAreas" "50% 0 82% 0 0 0 0 0"
EndSection
