Touchpad too stiff by default on HP nx6310

[Claudiu Bulcu]

The touchpad is too stiff by default in the beta 2 build of Lucid Lynx. Compared to the Win XP installation, it's too hard do a click, or double-click with the touchpad. I find myself using its buttons instead.

If I put the slider to the highest sensitivity, it improved very much, but still it felt a bit more stiff then in Windows. I think that if the slider would have had a bit more levels, it would have felt right on par with Windows.

I'm curious if anybody else have had the issue.
