Alright looking through the Xorg log it said that my touchpad was mapped to /dev/input/event11 so that is what I used evtest for. Evtest didn't do anything when turning the touchpad on and off, which I don't think it is meant to, but just in case it didn't. It showed values for clicking and moving every time I turned the pad on and off, so I think it is still getting the inputs no problem. When in Gnome I can click on menus, and they will get highlighted, but will not open, and once I click away from the window I was currently in I can't interact with anything afterwards including the window that gave me limited functionality. The only interaction I can make is making the menus of the Gnome toolbar highlight (but not actually open).
