Disabling tap to click on a Samsung NF210 using Ubuntu

    Relative linux noob using Ubuntu 10.10 (Desktop Ed) on a Samsung NF210 netbook.

    The touchpad is ridiculously sensitive and I want to disable the tap to click feature, only issue is that I have no idea how....

    If I go to System>Preference>Mouse there's no mention of tap to click or anything remotely like it, just pointer speed controls etc

    Any ideas?

    ive had to install this package to get an apple trackpad working, it has the extra settings you want
    sudo apt-get install gpointing-device-settings

    printout
    "ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/"
    and
    "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf"

    and copy/paste it to pastebin.com or similar
