I don't have your hardware but I do have a synaptics touchpad on my
f16 system and get it to work by doing the following:

adding these two lines to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf:

Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "RBCornerButton" "3"

(Line 1: left mouse tap / Line 2: right mouse tap in lower right corner)

Also add
Option "RightEdge" "5000"
Option "LeftEdge" "1700"

It is possible that this may get yours going also but you would have
to try it and say if it works?
