Hi!
I assume this happens on most recent kernels, starting vom 3.17?
I had this too and it comes down to a kernel driver issue. The clickpad
is wrongly detected as a so called "Forcepad". I reported the issue on
linux-input and Dmitry and Andrew are taking care of it. A patch should
be introduced to more recent 3.17 kernels shortly.
If you compile your own kernel you can patch the synaptics driver by
commenting out the
...
if (SYN_CAP_FORCEPAD(priv->ext_cap_0c)) {
...
(should be easy to find, I do not have a proper patch at hand right now).
Cheers
