Martin, I have actually experienced both of these bugs.  I have had the
touchpad stop responding with two syndaemons.  What I've been doing to
fix it is kill the one with the higher PID and then run synclient
touchpadoff=0.  This has happened under Unity and GNOME 3.

The other issue is the touchpad locking up for brief moments and
eventually becoming unresponsive and/or going wild.  It gets
progressively worse as time goes on, until it's become mostly
unresponsive between fits of... I don't even have a word for it.  It
three-finger-grabs a window and rapidly jerks it all over the screen.
The more I use the touchpad, the more rapidly the problem progresses,
but it's fine with an external mouse if I stay off the touchpad.  This
happens under Unity but DOES NOT happen with GNOME 3.
