touchpad not working on Dell laptop

$

G'day,

I have me a lovely new Dell laptop: Inspiron 3000 series (model x510404au), i7 processor, 8 Gig RAM, 1 TB HDD.

I have installed openSUSE 13.1 in a dual-boot configuration with Win 8.1. The touchpad works fine in Windows, but is as dead as a doorknob in Linux. Upon login I get a "touchpad not detected" message:

Code:

No touchpad found
No touchpad was found in this system. If the system has a touchpad, please make sure that the synaptics driver is properly installed and configured.
 If your touchpad is not found, though the driver is installed and configured correctly, please compile detailed information about your touchpad hardware and report this issue to the issue tracker.

I am using linux quite happily with a USB mouse but would like to get the touchpad working. Google hasn't been much help to me. Hence I turn to the experts for advice :)

Following is the output from various diagnostic commands.

/usr/sbin/hwinfo --mouse

synclient
Code:

Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?

The packages synaptiks and xf86-input-synaptics are both installed and up to date.

I have tried twiddling with the checkbox enabling the touchpad daemon in
Configure Desktop / Startup and Shutdown / Service Manager / KDE Touchpad
but to no avail.

Any help will be appreciated.
