I gave a partial solition in step #61 above which worked great after loging in, but it didn't seem like the display manager would pick up the change.
Instead, I found the follow solution completely resolved the problem for me: create /etc/modprobe/appletouch.conf with the following: options appletouch threshold=2 Now it works w/o the hack in #61. Maybe it is possible to change the appletouch module to default to 2 (instead of 5), or use a device ID to change the default for certain ids.
