I'll reassign the bug report accordingly. Actually, tapping was disabled even before we installed gpointing-device-settings. We believe these issues to be two separate bugs. There is no issue in the driver, the default configuration is the intended one, it may not be the best for all users but it's definitely not a bug. I do not agree with the last sentence: it is not a bug for upstream, but it is definitively a bug for the end-user and, according to Nattie report, even a regression. As you pointed out, however, there are two issues: first, the change in the default behavior of xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and, second, the fact that gpointing-device-settings does not correctly detect the initial situation. Again, as you pointed out, the latter was already reported, both in Debian (#572956) and upstream, and because of your reasoning I have merged the two bugs. ATM and AFAIK, the only possible solution is the system-wide one you pointed out, even better what explained on Ask Ubuntu, thus activating the settings in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/class-touchpad-tapping.conf: --8---cut here---start-8--- ## file:usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/README.Debian ## http://askubuntu.com/questions/12435/how-do-i-restore-two-finger-middle-click-again Section InputClass Identifiertouchpad-tapping MatchIsTouchpad true Driversynaptics OptionTapButton11 OptionTapButton22 OptionTapButton33 EndSection --8---cut here---end---8--- Finally, the above solves the default configuration, not the per-user one, since any customization is lost after logout: https://bugs.debian.org/615092 Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Is there any particular reason that the default setting has tapping disabled? Yes, you have: (II) ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad: buttons: left right middle double triple and disabing tapping by default this is the intended behaviour as explained in the manpage in the NOTES section: Tapping is disabled by default for touchpads with one or more physical buttons. To enable it you need to map tap actions to buttons. See the TapButton1, TapButton2 and TapButton3 options. man 4 synaptics should tell you how to configure tapping in xorg.conf (in short you should set the TabButton* options) but gpointing-device-settings saying that tapping is enabled sounds like a bug there. I'll reassign the bug report accordingly. Actually, tapping was disabled even before we installed gpointing-device-settings. We believe these issues to be two separate bugs.

G-pointing-device settings claim that tapping is enabled, but practical application shows this not to be the case. Can you attach the output of 'synclient -l'? In particular the values of the TapButton* options control tap-to-click, and 'synclient TapButton1=1' should enable it if it's set to 0. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature
