You should reinstall the driver for touchpad.

First, delete your old dkms module, using terminal:

cd /var/lib/dkms/psmouse/

rm -rf alps-dst-0.4

Download the new driver fom here.

Install it, following next commands in terminal:

tar xvf psmouse-alps-1.3-alt.tbz

cp -afr usr/src/psmouse-alps-1.3/ /usr/src/

dkms add psmouse/alps-1.3

dkms autoinstall

rmmod psmouse && modprobe psmouse
