ClickPad option with synaptics driver?

Hi freebsd-mobile members,

(I'm reposting my question to x11 list since obviously there's not
much traffic there.)

I'm trying to configure my Lenovo IdeaPad S400 Synaptics touchpad to
work properly.

Environment:
* Lenovo IdeaPad S400
* FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE
* xf86-input-synaptics-1.7.2 compiled with 'WITH_NEW_XORG=yes' (to
enable Intel KMS driver)
* hw.psm.synaptics_support=1 in /boot/loader.conf
* dmesg | grep psm:
psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
psm0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
psm0: model Synaptics Touchpad, device ID 0

Everything seems to work as expected, except ClickPad option. I
attached my Xorg log file. You can see from there what options I
enabled and how the touchpad is detected and configured.

However, I'd say that the problem is deeper than Xorg level, because
no ClickPad capability is detected at all:

[    19.570] (--) synaptics: Touchpad0:  Touchpad has extended capability bits
[    19.570] (--) synaptics: Touchpad0:  -> multifinger detection
[    19.570] (--) synaptics: Touchpad0:  -> palm detection

Unlike this, in Linux, Xorg says:

[    22.776] (II) synaptics: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: found clickpad property

So: is it possible at all to use ClickPad option with synaptics driver
on FreeBSD? If yes, could anybody share a success story?

Ivan
