Does your touchpad emit mouse button events when touching on the right / bottom side? I have a Toshiba Satellite with another touchpad (a Synaptics) and this can be programmed to do so. I'd think that Toshiba noadays uses touchpads that have this hard-coded (maybe there is a command to turn this on/off).
