2finger tap or corner tap only works for right click, and is useful to the point that you never miss right button again (I've used 2 finger tap for years in a macbook laptop)
For click+drag, I've found only two usable solutions: 1.- modprobe psmouse proto=exps; (thanks @sauthess !). With this protocol touchpad has the expected behaviour in left and right click, but no more features, as multifinger detection, so forget 2finger and even right area scroll. Of course you can rmmod psmouse; modprobe psmouse; again to change the protocol, but having to change the module whenever you want to do click+drag or scroll seems not confortable for daily usage. 2.- Universal solution: I've put some layers of paper adhesive sticks (these typical circular sticks) covering a small area in the left corner of the pad (You have to put some layers in order the clickpad doesnt detect your finger) and you can click in this area and move the other finger. Using a pen to do the click also works.
