Ah, that is a bit of an issue then. The touchpad drivers themselves don't have any fine grained controls for turning off some gestures. I guess a bunch of sysctl variables could be added to do this but they simply are not there at the moment - currently if the touchpad says it supports a gesture then it will be reported. Perhaps another approach is to just disable the double-click action in X which is what you have been looking at but I think you are looking in the wrong spot - the double click handling is more an application/window manager function so you need to look there to prevent undesirable effects. -- Brett Lymn Let go, or be dragged - Zen proverb.
