Thanks Lam, I wondered if it was something like this. The device is
enabled in the BIOS and was working fine with the same xorg.conf before
the mass X update.

Removing the explicit InputDevice section for the synaptics gives me
working "joystick" buttons but I loose the synaptics functionality. I'm
guessing that with a bit of fiddling they can both be made to work.

Previously this "just worked" however.
