you don't need the synaptics driver to get your synaptics touchpad working, 
but you can't use some features then, like the vertical scrolling.  I would 
like to use exactly this feature, it's as helpful as a scrollwheel at a 
mouse, I don't want to miss it.
Yes, the touchpad presents itself as a ps/2 style device, but when using 
X it does add the button 4 & 5 emulation.

I haven't tried the xorg synaptics driver in dragonfly yet - I should 
imagine that it builds, but does it not work?
