Cullen:
Thank you so much! This worked!
To summarize for those who look at this later, I was using Linux Mint. I
edited /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf . I changed:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "libinput"
EndSection
to:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "libinput"
* Option "Tapping" "on"*
EndSection
and it now works!
Thanks for the option Lars, but this works much better for me :-)
Thank you!
