On many Dell systems the Synaptics touchpad has the capability to run in both PS/2 and I2C modes. When running on a modern kernel, the touchpad will run in I2C mode.
When in I2C mode, the 'psmouse' driver is still loaded however, meaning that there are two input devices on the system. No input flows through the 'psmouse' driver, it's all handled via i2c-hid instead.
Unfortunately, when starting up syndaemon doesn't check which touchpad it's actually attached to. The login in syndaemon just looks for a touchpad that supports the Synaptics touchpad properties and both of them support these. This leads to syndaemon not working properly.
