Public bug reported:
Currently in 9.10 touchpad tap to click is disabled by default. This
behaviour is expected behaviour for a touch pad to work by default. Also
Ubuntu has had this as a default behavior for a very long time. New
driver & the ability to manipulate synapatic touch pad functionality
have lead to the regression from the community. I see the same problem
in other distributions as well.
The gconf key is:
desktop->gnome -> peripherals -> mouse -> tap_to_click
Currently users have to go into the preferences->mouse .. then to the
touchpad tab to enable this feature. Though early testing many are
seeing it as a fault in the driver and unaware of this new tab.
If this is on by default when a user taps their touchpad for a mouse
click, they will get expected behaviour.
