I bought a nice laptop a few months ago, worth about $650, barely 8 months old, and in mint condition, but sold at half price because the last user had installed Linux of it and rid it of any Windows product key, license, install, or CD.
Problem is, it doesn't use a synaptics touchpad. Observe:

I've googled around and it seems like the synaptics driver is the only driver out there. My Xorg.conf is just using the "mouse" driver at the moment, and while it works, movement is erratic and not at a constant speed, and I can't get a scrollbar down the side of the pad.
If it helps, I have no idea what model my laptop is. It's a Lenovo, but that's all I know. I've tried to identify using the Lenovo site, but I can't find any identification or valid serial numbers anywhere on it.
Any help would be appreciated.
