The Settings app (gnome-control-center and gnome-settings-daemon) included in GNOME 3.20 only support the new xserver-xorg-input-libinput driver.
We would just make that a dependency of gnome-control-center then except that unity-control-center doesn't yet support changing touchpad settings with it. For Ubuntu GNOME 16.10 (still in development), the libinput package is a recommends currently. Yes, it is a different touchpad driver and works differently than the old -synaptics driver. Maybe it will be more comfortable once you get used to it. If not, you can report a new bug: ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-input-libinput ** Package changed: gsettings-desktop-schemas (Ubuntu) => gnome-control- center (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1586657 Title: Touchpad gsettings being ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gsettings-desktop-schemas/+bug/1586657/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
