Alex, The mutter fix does set its own settings for TapButtons. And gnome- control-center (for reasons unexplained) has no GUI to configure it. But you can affect those settings by installing and running 'gnome-tweak- tool' and then set:
gnome-tweak-tool > Keyboard & Mouse > Touchpad > Mouse Click Emulation = Fingers which is the same as TapButton1=1 TapButton2=3 TapButton3=2. If that's not enough then you can also force your own settings by running command 'synclient'. Once you know the synclient syntax you want you can apply it automatically at login by running 'gnome-session- properties'. And if that's still not enough then you can also log a bug if you like: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+filebug -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1686081 Title: If -synaptics is installed, GNOME Mouse & Touchpad Settings doesn't work Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in xubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-control-center source package in Artful: Confirmed Status in mutter source package in Artful: Confirmed Status in xorg source package in Artful: Invalid Status in xubuntu-meta source package in Artful: Fix Released Bug description: I'm splitting this issue off from LP: #1685542 (which made xserver- xorg-input-all no longer recommend xserver-xorg-input-synaptics) for tracking the remaining issues. gnome-control-center only supports libinput. If xserver-xorg-input- synaptics is installed (because it's used by some desktops which haven't been ported to libinput yet), synaptics overrides libinput. That makes gnome-control-center's Mouse & Touchpad settings panel only show basic settings and important configurations don't work. Questions --------- 1. Which desktops/apps still need -synaptics? - Unity - Xfce? - LXDE? LXQt? All the other major desktops have already been ported (LP: #1417980) 2. Can these apps be ported or removed before 18.04 LTS is released? 3. Can the desktops be ported and how bad is it if they are not ported and -synaptics is no longer available? 4. If -synaptics can't be removed completely from 18.04 LTS, does it make sense to have gnome-control-center Conflicts: xserver-xorg-input- synaptics? 5. Is there any other way we can fix this conflict?
