This didn't seem to be a problem with the driver that came with Ubuntu 15.04, but now that I have upgraded to 16.04, this is definitely a problem again.
I however, did find a patch located here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=100632
After applying it, the touchpad is MUCH more usable. The laptop I am using it on is a Dell Inspirson 15 7537.
