If it is identified as an ALPS touchpad you can try installing Peter
Osterlund's Synaptics X driver:

           http://web.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad/

Alternatively you can restore 2.6.10 behavior with psmouse.proto=exps
boot option (if psmouse is a module add "options psmouse proto=exps"
to your /etc/modprobe.conf).
