I installed headers and kernel 2.6.36-999-generic. No change, touchpad is still not detected.

The following was installed.

linux-headers-2.6.36-999_2.6.36-999.201009211548_all.deb
linux-headers-2.6.36-999-generic_2.6.36-999.201009211548_i386.deb
linux-image-2.6.36-999-generic_2.6.36-999.201009211548_i386.deb

Then the computer was restarted. Touchpad still not detected.
"tpconfig" yielded output
"Could not open PS/2 Port [/dev/psaux]"

Clicking "System - > Preferences -> Touchpad"
yielded following output: "GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics""
