thanks for helping me detect my mouse. 
Here are my xinput, lspci, dmesg,   here is what i'm now unsure of, how do I get the touchpad window under mouse options so I can set two finger scrolling or other multitouch functions. when I try synclient, I get the following error. 

makezan@700Z3A:~$ synclient
Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?
