Bug Description
The touchpad of my Dell Latitude E6220 is not recognized as a touchpad - only a PS2 mouse is seen in the lists of devices. Therefore I cannot change any settings. gpointing-devices does not find it either.
The problem appears in Ubuntu 11.10 and Lubuntu 11.10

The touchpad works - but the system does not know it is there. Hence there is no way of changing settings. Tap clicking is a nightmare.....
