For those using pbbuttonsd, it can easily set notap using a line in /etc/pbbuttonsd.conf -- the Debian packaged config file has it under a section called [MODULE PMAC]: TPMode = notap This makes the trackpad operate much more like most of us are used to. Regarding the trackpad being too sensitive, I was able to make my trackpad mostly usable using the mouse settings in KDE. I couldn't tell what desktop environment the original two posters in this thread are using, but maybe someone can point to a setting or a utility in KDE or GNOME that is more appropriate to the needs of a trackpad user (instead of a mouse user). For me using KDE, I find there are only "least bad" settings for my trackpad rather than being able to set ideal ones.
