Description a_tevelev 2009-04-21 21:32:55 UTC 
Synaptic driver used to work perfectly until upgrade to x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r5.

Now it (x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics-1.0.0) fails to load with the following error in Xorg.0.log:

(II) config/hal: Adding input device SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad
(II) LoadModule: "synaptics"

(II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so
dlopen: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so: undefined symbol: miPointerGetMotionEvents
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so
(II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"
(EE) Failed to load module "synaptics" (loader failed, 7)
(EE) No input driver matching `synaptics'
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed

xorg-server post-intall message explicitly
tells you to reemerge all drivers after upgrade.
