in the X11 synaptics.fdi I changed "ALPS/2" to "ETPS/2 Elantech Touch" and the problem was much better, but still present. It went from not having any control over the touchpad to a manageable level of jumpy-ness as long as you used a fair amount of pressure on the pad and full lifted your finger from the pad before reorienting it on the touchpad.
