2.6.13-rc1-mm1 -- Synaptics touchpad not detected correctly

Hello,

Any ideas why my Synaptics touchpad isn't getting recognized
as supporting multi-finger tap detection? I haven't seen detection
work with earlier kernels, either. However, multifinger taps work
under WinXP.

dmesg is reporting:

Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 5.10, id: 0x258eb1, caps:
0xa04713/0x0
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad on isa0060/serio1

On the web, I found this reference:
http://www.softwarelibremorelos.gob.mx/pipermail/slm/2005-March/001267.html
Which, for 2.6.10, shows:
Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1
Firmware: 5.10
Sensor: 37
new absolute packet format
Touchpad has extended capability bits
-> multifinger detection
-> palm detection
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad on isa0060/serio1

My .config contains:
