	I don't believe auto detection and believe that only psm should
	be found.  The other synaptics protocols are Linux's ones.

	The synaptics supports psaux/event/alps/psm/auto-dev protocol.
	sysmouse protocol is moused(8)'s protocol.  Yes, recent psm(4)
	driver supports Synaptics Touchpad, but not enough feature.

	I think that you use moused(8)/psm(4) FreeBSD native synaptics
	touchpad driver and synaptics(4) X11 driver.  So these don't
	works you think.

	I'll add to disable "Core Pointer" expect synaptics to
	pkg-message like following.
