Tried installing the psmouse-alps-1.3 driver, the install was successful, but nothing changed.
An additional problem is that since there are no touchpad settings in System Settings, I cannot change the "Disable touchpad while typing". I tried dconf, but there is no such option neither. The "Disable touchpad while typing" seems to be on -- the touchpad disables for ~1 sec after touching any key (including Shift for instance). I tried using syndaemon -i 1.0 -K -R -t with no effect neither.
The same for me in E5470:
