Timo, I'm currently testing Intrepid Beta. The AlpsPS/2 ALPS Glidepoint does NOT trigger the Touchpad tab in Mouse Properties. See Bug #267611.
Since I cannot see what is provided on the Touchpad tab, can you confirm that there is an option which will turn the touchpad off when an external mouse is attached? The current philosophy is that X is supposed to autodetect all input devices. But past experience has been that I have had to customize the Synaptics section heavily for my touchpad to perform reasonably. If there's anything I can do to improve this as a user, then point me the way. Currently I have no way of configuring the touchpad other than doing what Ubuntu and the Xmen are trying to prevent, and that is by modifying xorg.conf. The default setup is a PITA, because as others have observed, the cursor jumps in an unpredictable fashion all over the place.
