You make excellent points.
1) Going forward I believe the Gnome guys see anything that's not
libinput as unsupported. So we could log an enhancement request to get
them to add Xorg synaptics support (ie. tweak the same things as
'synclient' does). But they're likely to ignore that request. Still,
Jonathan,
I suggest a workaround might be to:
1. sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
2. Only log in to "Ubuntu on Xorg", so now you're avoiding libinput completely.
3. Tweak your settings with 'synclient'.
Since this sounds like a problem specifically with libinput, please help
us to
I can confirm that I have the same issue on Macbook Pro late 2017 model
14,2. Please fix this.

Title:
touchpad disable
/me Looks at all the settings again
I have the same problem as Jonathan, and can confirm that the mouse is
set correctly.
It does operate properly if the touchscreen of my computer is disabled,
but if the touchscreen is active, then the disable-to-type function of
the touchpad does not work
/me Checks if I am an idiot.
Nope, looks like I am not an idiot!
The only settings available in Settings > Devices > Mouse & Touchpad are
"Primary Button", "Mouse Speed", and "Natural Scrolling".
And as you can see from the Xorg.0.log which I have attached, the
touchpad appears to be detected
Jonathan,
Can you find the options for configuring your touchpad in:
Settings > Devices > Mouse & Touchpad?
I am imagining either that's too hard to find (I agree), or the settings
might be missing (which can happen on some laptops where the touchpad is
misdetected as a mouse).
** Changed
I run a logitech wireless mouse, although my receiver comes up as
"Logitech M315/M235". I'm not sure why this device would show on your
system as devices 14 and 18. I assume device 15 must be a wireless
keyboard?
Just for kicks, you could try selectively disabling one or the other of
the
$ xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2[master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointerid=4[slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPadid=12 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Receiver id=14
But hopefully, a piece of the problem so the developers can write a
solution!
What is the output of "xinput" on your computer?

Expanding upon comment #3
xinput shows
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2[master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointerid=4[slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPadid=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ELAN Touchscreen
In my case, xinput shows a device "ELAN Touchscreen"
I have issued the command " xinput disable 'ELAN Touchscreen' ", which
disables that device entirely, and my touchpad then works correctly. I
will update my comment in the bug report.

Could you be more specific about what you did and how you did it? I
don't quite understand.
