Okay.

I added the fix that was posted in bug 636842.

Now the touchpad works. The multi-touch features work. I can tap twice to left-click, and scroll on the right side of the touchpad.

The fix was posted here: http://davidsterry.com/blog/2010/09/ubuntu-10-04-32-bit-on-sony-vaio-vpcf121gx/

Except I used gedit to modify the file.

1. Run: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
and modify it so the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line looks like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=”i8042.nopnp”
2. Run: sudo update-grub
3. Reboot.

Thanks to everyone that helped.
