I wanna use touchpad function "Dragging through short touching and holding down the finger on the touchpad. " and "Double-Button events through double short touching of the touchpad. "
but I don't...

I've been configured Synaptics Touchpad option in Kernel(2.6.0)
and Installed synaptics_drv.o in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input and drivers.

My XF86Config

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
Option "LeftEdge" "1900"
Option "RightEdge" "5400"
Option "TopEdge" "3900"
Option "BottomEdge" "1800"
Option "FingerLow" "25"
Option "FingerHigh" "30"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.02"
Option "MaxSpeed" "0.10"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
#Option "SHMConfig" "off"
EndSection

What is the problem?
when
#startx

It shows me failed message about Input device.

Are you referencing the touchpad as the CorePointer in your "ServerLayout" section? For example, here's mine:

Core initialize failed..?

Have you tested to see whether /dev/input/mouse0 exists? I'm just using "/dev/psaux" as the device for my touchpad. I don't have a /dev/input/mouse0.
