@Pilot,

Here's the command I ran:
sudo cp /lib/modules/3.19.0-13-generic/updates/dkms/psmouse.ko /lib/modules/3.19.0-13-generic/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/

I just rebooted my computer again, and the mouse is back to emulation mode..
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 FocalTech FocalTech Touchpad in mouse emulation mode id=12 [slave pointer (2)]

It corrects as soon as I restart psmouse

$ sudo modprobe -r psmouse
$ sudo modprobe psmouse
$ xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 FocalTech FocalTech Touchpad id=12 [slave pointer (2)]

When I say "upstart", I mean I am using the upstart version of the kernel loading in grub. The systemd / default option will not load at all - something funky, most likely related to the nvidia driver.
