After sleeping I pulled out my laptop and got these links: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Synaptics_Touchpad http://johnny.chadda.se/2007/08/12/speed-up-your-synaptics-touchpad-in-ubuntu/ http://johnny.chadda.se/2007/08/12/disable-the-synaptics-touchpad-when-typing/ Really, the first is enough to get your touchpad working with some advanced options.
