Which version of x11-base/xorg-server do you use?
Created attachment 164940 [details] Xorg log Got same problem xorg-server 1.5.0 and x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics-0.15.1 System info http://wklej.org/id/3170/
(In reply to comment #1) > Which version of x11-base/xorg-server do you use? > xorg-server-1.5.0 System is AFAIK up-to-date to current Gentoo ~amd64
Exact same problem here on ~amd64. Have to either comment out synaptics in xorg.conf or use package.mask to go back to 0.15.0. Tried rebuilding all X11 drivers and xorg 1.5, but no luck.

Can some of you guys try out suggestion in comment #3 on bug 237104 -- see if explicitly specifying the device in xorg.conf avoids triggering the bug.

It seems that upstream has patched this already: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input-synaptics/commit/?id=5d3a47eed9f5330982d10c3acc15c486e3c86beb Has anybody tested this?
+*xf86-input-synaptics-0.15.1-r1 (10 Sep 2008) + + 10 Sep 2008; <chainsaw@gentoo.org> +files/synaptics-fix-explosion.patch, + +xf86-input-synaptics-0.15.1-r1.ebuild: + Add explosion avoidance to the driver, upstream patch found by Kamil + Kamiński <kamil@mrblur.net>. Closes bug #237074. Thank you for your bug report. Within two hours, this change will be on your local rsync mirror. I had to disable HAL and manually add a touchpad statement to trigger the bug, but it is indeed fairly explosive.
