Resolve Macbook Pro trackpad response issue

The Macbook Pro trackpad is very sensitive, and this falsely triggers the Accidental Input detection in Tiger. The result is that the trackpad seems to lock up for a few seconds.

The fix is easy enough: go to System Preferences > Keyboard and Mouse > Trackpad, and uncheck Ignore accidental trackpad input. I turned that feature off and I haven't had any further problems with the trackpad not responding.

[kirkmc adds: Edited to read 'uncheck'.]
