Correction - gsynaptics doesn't need super user rights.

Have you considered installing gtk-qt-engine to improve the experience of using Gnome/Gtk applications in Kubuntu?

The default tapping configuration is horrible, so a GUI would be nice. I'm not sure why qsynaptics seems not to be in the repositories for hardy. What happened to it?
