Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-mouse
The touchpad works but is too sensitive, so I want to disable the "tap to click" feature. However, it doesn't seem to be detected by the system, because under Systems->Preferences there is nothing for the touchpad, nor is there a tab or options for it under System->Preferences->Mouse. I tried adding these lines to xorg.conf, based on what I found online, to disable the "tap to click." But it had no effect: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "MaxTapTime" "0" EndSection The machine is Dell Latitude E6510.
