Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

The touchpad on my E4310 works out of the box with Ubuntu 10.04 but with only limited functionality. 
Using the mouse preferences dialogue:
two finger scolling is missing,
disabling "mouse clicks with touchpad" doesn't have any effect
disabling touchpad while typing doesn't have any effect
"edge scrolling" has no effect
"horizontal scrolling" has no effect

synclient also has no effect on the device at all.

xinput also has no effect on the device.

I have tried changing simple settings using xinput to no avail such as setting Device Enabled to be false:
xinput set-prop 13 118 0

I have a feeling that the device is using a fallback device driver and
not the proper synaptics one.
