It looks like those are the default settings for the synaptics Xorg driver (xf86-input-synaptics upstream or xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu). In the latest version of xf86-input-synaptics (1.50), src/synaptics.c contains the following lines:
pars->tap_time = xf86SetIntOption(opts, "MaxTapTime", 180); and pars->fast_taps = xf86SetBoolOption(opts, "FastTaps", FALSE); which as said before, seem to be the culprit of this problem. A simple patch to change those values in the source code would fix this problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/859474 Title: Dragging with touchpad unusable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/859474/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
