Thanks for the tip Mary. I installed the patch. No luck! No touchpad tab in mouse prefs, no synaptics driver installed. Perhaps our hardware is a little different. Either way, I hope this bug isn't going to be as thorny as it looks... I'm resorting to a piece of cardboard taped over the touchpad just to type now.
