Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
I updated Karmic just now, after not having done so for several weeks.
After rebooting after the update, and logging back in, I find that edge-scrolling on the laptop's touchpad no longer works. Nor does tap-in-corners.
It was working fine before this update -- Karmic as of the start of December.

From dmesg:
input: PS/2 Generic Mouse as /devices/
The kernel thinks its a generic mouse and not a touchpad, reassigning to the kernel where the problem is.
