File the bug, but also try this:

I had the same problem  as you and almost gave up.  Finally some obscure 
web search foudn me the solution.  I added "i8042.nomux" to the end of 
the kernel line in /etc/grub.conf and suddenly my touchpad came to 
life.  I don't know what other steps were important because I tried a 
LOT of different things before I found this.

Good luck!

Frank.
