* Better default parameters for alps touchpads.

* Added Dmitry's updated alps patch that can do hardware auto-detection
  and also disables hardware tapping.

-doesn't work for ALPS devices, so you have to use the "event" protocol

 If you use a 2.4 linux kernel, you don't need to patch the kernel, but
 you should instead set "Device" and "Protocol" like this:
 
-  Option	"Device"  		"/dev/psaux"
   Option	"Protocol"		"alps"
