My touchpad is EXTREMELY choppy. I'm not sure if this is a driver issue or what. I tried following the steps in answer: Alps Touchpad on Dell: how do I install the DKMS driver to enable multitouch?

But all of the links are out-dated/do not work, not to mention a lot of the commands sound like complete german to a new linux user. I've been googling on this issue for 3 hours to no avail. I'm completely stuck at this point and of ideas so any help would be greatly appreciated.

To get touchpad properties on M6700, enter this:

xinput list-props "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad" | grep -i finger

To set touchpad properties to be a bit less touchy than default, I entered this:

xinput set-prop "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad" "Synaptics Finger" 15, 20, 128
