Bug#821354: Bug#821352: Acknowledgement (Edge-scrolling and tap-to-click no longer working)

Hey Michael,

Just want to add to this bug report.

Tap to click does not work for me either since the upgrade to 3.20.

It was already installed :

    apt search xserver-xorg-input-libinput

    xserver-xorg-input-libinput/unstable,testing,now 0.19.0-1 amd64 [installed]

      X.Org X server -- libinput input driver

Check attached screenshot but even with xserver-xorg-input-libinput
installed the option is missing from the settings dialog.


Worse I checked in gsettings and the option was still set :

    org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad tap-to-click true

So far the only workaround is to run synclient manually :

    synclient TapButton1=1 TapButton2=3 TapButton3=2

The touchpad hardware model is a :

    egrep -i 'synap|alps|etps' /proc/bus/input/devices
    N: Name="ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad"


Hope this help.

Let me know what other information I can give you to help debugging this.
Cheers
