Random thoughts...
* STFW (You've probably already done this, but it's always worth
mentioning, and always a good start with error messages)
* Edit kernel, comment out or remove offending line from psmouse.
* Disable logfile rotation, symlink relevant log to /dev/null.
* Try a kernel upgrade, or a different mouse driver. If things are still
broken, email the maintainer of the TouchPad driver, or the linux-
kernel mailing list.
