This command did not work "gconftool-2 --set --type boolean

I was also getting a lot of "module psmouse does not exist in proc/modules".

The only thing which worked was "sudo modprobe -r psmouse; sudo modprobe psmouse".

I am running an Asus Eee PC with Ubuntu 11.10 32-bit. Asus Eee PC has 1GB or RAM and an Intel Atom 1.66Ghz single-core.
