The mouse touch pad doesn't work on XO4

[James Cameron]

Have you enabled the feature in your builds?

The tap to click feature is disabled by default in our OLPC OS builds,
because of the installed base of existing learners who were not
familiar with it.

In new deployments to inexperienced learners, it may be enabled before
build.

See
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OS_Builder/Enable_taptoclick

Also, identify the touchpad on your XO-4 and XO-1.  The actions to
enable depend on the touchpad type.

See
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Touchpad/Testing#Identification

Perhaps it is working on XO-1 because your build has the enable for
the type of touchpad in your XO-1, and not working on XO-4 because the
build does not have the enable for the type of touchpad in your XO-4.
