Debian Team can change this, enabling by default.
* Tapping has been disabled by default on many touchpads by upstream, see
the "NOTES" section in the synaptics(4) manpage for a short overview
about how defaults are calculated.
If you want to re-enable it, you can do so from within the X
environment by running the following commands in a terminal:
$ synclient TapButton1=1
$ synclient TapButton2=2
$ synclient TapButton3=3
But, think as an domestic user, like your mum:
- Mother: Son, the touchpad is not working.
- Son: Oh Mun, you need go to terminal and type some commands
- Mother: Uhmmmm, now it's working.
After reboot:
- Mother: Hey son, the touchpad is not working again!
- Son: It's happening because the configuration cannot be permanently
modified. You need change the xorg.conf or custom FDI file.
WTF!
Note that the configuration will not be permanently modified, to do
so assign the above option values in your xorg.conf or custom fdi file
(see the synaptics(4) manpage
Synaptics manpage don't tell me HOW/WHAT/WHERE can I change it permanently.
This is obscure.
or the documents in
/usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics for additional details).
And none documents tell me HOW can I change it permanently, or how/what
I need change on xorg.conf
Closing. This is documented and we're not going to diverge from
upstream.
The documents on /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (and
synaptics manpage) tell us that tap is not enabled by default. Some
documents tell that is necessary change somethings on xorg.conf, but it
not explain HOW.
