Not sure about the rest of it, but on my T40, adding

Option          "MaxTapTime"            "0"

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf disabled the "tap to click" feature without
changing anything else.  I have a section that looks like this (the
rest was generated by the Ubuntu installation, so don't just paste the
block unless you have a corresponding reference to "Synaptics
Touchpad" in your ServerLayout section, too).

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Synaptics Touchpad"
        Driver          "synaptics"
        Option          "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
        Option          "Protocol"              "auto-dev"
        Option          "XAxisMapping"          "6 7"
        Option          "MaxTapTime"            "0"
EndSection

I do hope the other issues with the T60p aren't too serious, as I
ordered one yesterday.
