Thanks again for your reply. Actually, what is this command suppose to do exactly? It only pulled the synaptics driver :/

You're quite welcome :) .

Actually this command is what I always use for upgrades/updates -- except the --bdeps thing. You will find detailed info in man portage . With -D portage does a deep update of packages, not just those you're specifying on the command line but also the dependencies. I don't know why exactly the --with-bdeps=y (include back dependencies aka dependencies of dependencies, that's how I understand that but don't ask :D) should be used (IIRC it is implied but you're never too careful). With -N you update/upgrade packages which USE flags have changed. Use -A for emerge to always ask yes/no. With -v and -q combined you have quiet output but with USE flag and version changes.

Thanks for the thorough explanation. However, the issue still persists. For example I have just tried to use this option to check tapping on the fly:
Code:
  synclient  TapButton1=1
  synclient  TapButton2=2
  synclient  TapButton3=3

But it still lags!!! I mean it's like a 1ms lag or something, but the hard button, still responds quicker than the tapping action.. I'm goin really nuts!!

Have you checked that synclient returns the same parameter values as the ones in your synaptics configuration file?

What I ended up doing, was installing Archlinux and copying the .conf files over to my gentoo machine. Now, It works better, but still the tapping is slightly "laggish" than the actual hardware buttons..

I honestly believe your issue lies in the MaxTapMove option for (IIRC) that's the one I changed to fix the laggy pointer using the touch pad. Sometimes (instead of always) the pointer happened to move when dragging my finger on the touch pad area. It was jerky at best. Changing the value did solve my issue.
