Since I upgraded my laptop to testing, the touch pad on my Dell latitude
600 has a very low ratio between motion of my finger and motion of the
mouse. I have tried fiddling with the mouse settings, but nothing has
helped. FWIW, the XP side has displayed no such slow-down, so it's
clearly a software issue. Any help would be appreciated.
When I installed Debian I had to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf because my
touchpad was very slow; maybe it would be helpful to see mine, although
I don't know what driver your touchpad uses...

Thanks very much. I applied your patch verbatim, only adding a
MaxTapTime of 180 so that I can tap for a left mouse click. My laptop
works well again.
