    check the synaptics settings. there are loads of options for single touch, and more if you get the multitouch drivers

    I second Wiggy Fuzz. Go to the Synaptics website and download the latest multitouch driver. Then, enable multitouch gestures into the Synaptics pointer device (icon in the rightmost part of the task bar). By increasing the touchpad sensitivity, I could manage to get an "ok" multitouch pad. It's certainly not as robust as my Macbook Pro touchpad, but it's close enough to be enjoyable.
