Correct me if I'm wrong but touchpad config can be found in xorg.conf.

But I'm not exactly sure about the new xorg configuration in Intrepid which is, well, contains practically almost nothing. So I'm not exactly sure what to advice then. Sorry.

There is GUI configuration apps for touchpad, though. Called gsynaptics (not to be confused with synaptic).
