I have the same problem on Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 530 and Ubuntu 13.04
The settings from comment #5 did not satisfy me since the cursor speed is 
pretty much affected (reduced) and increasing the VelocityScale returns back 
the problem. 

After reading the Synaptics manpage I experimented a better configuration, that 
doesn't affect the speed: there is a 
nice feature called NoiseCancellation. 

I have created the following config file in
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-thinkpad-touchpad.conf:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "touchpad"
        MatchProduct "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"
        Driver "synaptics"
        # fix touchpad resolution
        Option "VertResolution" "100"
        Option "HorizResolution" "65"
        # increment noise cancellation factor
        Option "HorizHysteresis" "50"
        Option "VertHysteresis" "50"
EndSection

You can increase the Horiz-/VertHysteresis even more if you experience
still some jumping.
