How to change trackpad sensitivity? (MB 2,1 x86_64)

[User #0001]

Hello.
Ever since I've upgraded to Jaunty, I've had nothing but trouble with my computer. The most pressing issue is with the trackpad. The sensitivity is very low, and it takes forever to get the mouse across the screen.

It feels nearly unusable, and the mouse speed option seems to do nothing.

How can I change the sensitivity of the trackpad?

Thank you cyberdork33, the trackpad is comfortable now, though scrolling is not so good as under OSX.
I still can't make the eject CD key work after installing pommed.

Thank you, cyberdork. That page wasn't there when I first installed Jaunty, and I didn't bother to look for it again.

The "jumpy" two-finger scrolling is a known bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/381884).

The eject button works for me after installing pommed (MacBook 2,1 + Kubuntu 32 bits). I wonder if this issue is specific to the 64-bit version. Are you able to eject the CD by right clicking the CD icon on the desktop?

To avoid jumpy scrolling, I have to use both hands - two thumbs or two index fingers.
Yes I can eject the CD by right clicking the CD icon. (MacBook 2,1 ubuntu 9.04 32-bit)
