So far I have been using the Synaptic Package Manager to search for "touchpad" and testing all of the available packages with no luck. Is there any way to find out which one I should be installing for my particular system?

I tinkered around with the synaptiks touchpad program in the accessories menu but wasn't able to configure it to work any better.

I found this link (my MacBook is actually model 3.1) and I noticed at the bottom it says you need kernel version 3.15 for the touchpad to be pleasant to use. I have worked out Trisquel is using 3.13. So am I right that different distributions use different versions of the Linux kernel and there is no way to currently use 3.15 with Trisquel?

I'm starting to think the only way to have a smoother experience will be to get a USB mouse. Could you recommend a good cheap one? Or will most mouses work ok?
