2018-02-07 Thread Daniel van Vugt
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,

OK, so... Both disabling tap-to-click and enabling disable-touchpad-while-typing work properly, in both "Ubuntu" and "Ubuntu on Xorg", when I remove the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package. I suppose that means this bug is invalid, BUT... 1) It still seems like a bug to me that installing

"Tap to Click" is meant to be configurable in the GUI here: Settings > Devices > Mouse & Touchpad > Touchpad > Tap to Click If you don't see that option then the issue is either: (a) libinput or the kernel have not detected your touchpad as a clickpad correctly; or (b) You have

Logging into Ubuntu (i.e., not "Ubuntu on Xorg"), the "Disable While Typing" Touchpad setting in gnome-tweak-tool now appears to work. Furthermore, tapping to click does _not_ work, i.e., the behavior I want is present by default as far as I can tell. In fact, I can't figure out any way to cause

Actually, I think opening a libinput bug is premature, for reasons I will explain below. I'm going to close that other bug until I can quantify better what is going on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libinput in Ubuntu.

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
