I'd have a look at X.org drivers first.  Specifically the Synaptics
input driver, xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is the name of the package in
Debian.

I have a Panasonic CF-53 with a similar touchpad in it, connected via
PS/2, so no kernel module (other than the generic 'psmouse').

In /var/log/Xorg.0.log, I see it detected like this:

It can be configured from the command line using a tool called
`synclient`, which is, I believe, what the Gnome tools talk to.  (I run
FVWM)

I'd check that:
- you have xserver-xorg-input-synaptics installed
- this driver is being loaded in your X.org logs
