This is something I cannot still understand but it seems that GNOME and also KDE guys have decided to disable that option by default while I found it the natural way the user expects the touchpad behaves (→ you tap, you click) :-? In GNOME this can be easily enabled from touchpad settings (under mouse options) so in KDE there must be something similar. To enable it also at login (KDM/GDM) there is another setting of X server you need to tweak (ask if you are interested in this because I don't remember the exact option right now) :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
