there are at least two options in there that are non-default, so maybe other
options are different too. an xorg.log would be more useful here, or make
sure that you don't have any custom configs in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
or an xorg.conf

Two options:
* use evtest or evemu-record to record the data and look at the output, or
  simpler
* use libevdev's touchpad-edge-detector tool to scope out the min/max ranges
  of your touchpad
