I have no idea how to find out who manufactured the touchpad.  I've done google searches on it but all the specs merely say: input devices: touchpad, keyboard.

Maybe lsusb can help to identify.

kevinfish:
no, it doesn't show anything, but in another forum the owner of one of these laptops said it is a synaptic and had some suggestions for an xorg.conf file which I made the corrections and have attached.  It still does not disable the tapping (nor did it seem to have any effect at all).

maro:
@kevinfish: What's the result when you do:
    dmesg | grep -i touch
That is on the assumption that your 'dmesg' output is not been "cut short". In that case re-boot with boot parameter 'syslog' and then post the result of:
    grep -i touch /var/log/messages

Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 6.2, id: 0x180b1, caps: 0xa04713/0x200000
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input4

Juanito:
Based on this from your xorg.0.log:
--- Code: ---Alps Touchpad no synaptics event device found
Query no Synaptics: 6003C8
(--) Alps Touchpad: no supported touchpad found
--- End code ---

..could you try this:
--- Code: ---$ cat /proc/bus/input/devices
--- End code ---

..on my machine, I get this:
--- Code: ---I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0008 Version=6337
N: Name="AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint"
P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0
S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input5
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=mouse1 event5
B: EV=f

B: REL=3

--- End code ---
