The problem can be worked around by tweaking the X.org configuration in the following way: In X.org I use the following configuration in: /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf Section "InputClass" Identifier "touchpad catchall" Driver "synaptics" MatchIsTouchpad "on" Option "ClickPad" "true" [..] EndSection However, as Wayland's libinput does not have this option I run into issues. For example right click doesn't work, or drag and drop with pressing with one finger and moving with another. The trackpad should be automatically recognized as a clickpad.
