I had a reappearence of the issue with the touchpad, this time gnome was
fully working, when the touchpad stopped working. Again 2-3 sec. after
GDM login touchpad stopped working.

This time the solution was different, applied as described here (german
ubuntu wiki):
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/touchpad#GNOME

The touchpad was (for an unknown reason) disabled in GNOME and could be
reenabled:

# info
gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled
# result: false
gconftool-2 --set --type boolean
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled true

# logout, login, touchpad in Gnome OK

Now the settings are:
gconftool -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad
 disable_while_typing = true
 config_migration_needed = false
 touchpad_enabled = true
 tap_to_click = true
 scroll_method = 2
 horiz_scroll_enabled = true

HTH,
Martin
