Thanks Alberto, I have the same synaptics touchpad as the original
reporter but it's in a Dell Studio 15 (1555)

[ 6.018770] Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 7.2, id: 0x1c0b1, caps:
0xd04731/0xa40000

Your comments assisted me in implimenting the emulation.  But I like Jim
Braux-Zin (post #10)  DesertBlizzard  (post #15) and presumably the
original bug reporter Pete Goodall believe our devices to be multi touch
capable.  My machine has pinch zoom in vista (kept to flash machine bios
only) so I am assuming this must mean it has multi touch.  I have opened
another bug report Bug #476866 and apologise if this is in fact a
duplicate its just that I am unsure.

I found that Brad Pitcher's settings also worked for me, thanks Brad.
Could this be a case of the synaptic driver not reporting the
capabilities of at least this touchpad correctly, hence our requirement
to employ the emulation.

@ Brad - in my bug report there is a means of keeping this setting over reboot, but I have specified for "Studio 1555" but trivial to change to your laptop via info from:-
