[Slackbuilds-users] Updated SlackBuild for synaptics for latest -current

[Yalla-One]

Hi all,

The SlackBuild for synaptics breaks in two places with modular X and the new 
gcc. Here's an updated version of the script that checks /etc/X11/xorg.conf 
for the correct Module path and then attempts to install the synaptics module 
there:

-------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

## Written by hollywoodb (hollywoodb at fastmail.fm)
# Modified by Yalla-One (yallaone at gmail.com)
# (modified for automatic X.org module directory detection)
#

# Verify script is being run by root user.
if [ "$(id -u)" != "0" ]; then
    echo "This script must be run as root!"
    exit
