Logitech K400r keyboard/Touchpad combo - disable touchpad?

[end user]

I got a Logitech K400R for my htpc running Mint 14/Mate. I'm having a hell of a time controlling XBMC as the touch pad is sensitive I need to try to disable the double tap and only use the left/right buttons for left/right mouse clicks. Under preference I only get mouse setting and nothing for touchpads like on a notebook. Is there a way for me to disable the double tap on the touch pad?

Not a permanent solutionin the above link but might work. I'll test it when I get home.

Hold down the blue function key and the left trackpad key simultaneously.

No software required, OS is irrelevant.

The above method did the trick for now.
