Title:
I cannot disable touchpad tapping because there is no option on the
mouse preferences dalog and gsynaptics will not run.
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xfree86-driver-synaptics
I am unable to disable tapping on my touchpad. I purchased an ASUS
K70IO laptop and after some minor tweaking everything works fine, even
the touchpad. However, I cannot stand touchpad tapping, so when I went
to disable it, the option was not there. I have scoured the search
engine results and cannot find anything that might help. I am not even
sure what touchpad is even installed any more. I tried to use
gsynaptics to disable tapping, but when I run it I get "GSynaptics
couldn't initialize" You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf
or XF86Config to use GSynaptics".
However, there is no entry in xorg.conf for a touchpad, mouse, or
pointing device and XF86Config file does not exist.
I must be able to disable tapping. It is the most annoying and
infuriating feature ever invented and the person who came up with it
should be shot. At least metaphorically.
I am using Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty.
