Upgrading from Karmic to Lucid, it seems the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package was removed and never reinstalled. When I went to try Chris Highfield's idea (#9), I noticed the package was a dependency and was downloaded because it wasn't installed.

Since the other two packages he suggested downloaded and installed, I'll never know if it was the two programs he suggested or the missing xserver-synaptics package causing the problem. Nonetheless, it's fixed now.
