I were able to enable SHMConfig by following this url

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad

And now my synclient -l shows this setup  http://pastebin.com/f4325680

But my touchpad tap still not working

When I run synclient -m 100 and tap the touchopad with two fingers I get
this, so laptop does recognize
the tap, but seems not know what to do with it

That is the result of two taps. Each tap generates two rows of outputs
