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 progress this issue by reporting it upstream to the libinput developers here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=wayland&component=libinput And when done, let us know the ID of the newly-created bug. ** Package changed: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) => libinput (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libinput in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1733032 Title: touchpad disable while typing, disable tap-to-click don't work in 17.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libinput/+bug/1733032/+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
