Enabling tapping with the touchpad

[Gul Dukat]

Hi,

I've managed to install the new Fedora 16 LXDE-spin on my laptop. But somehow the tapping on my touchpad doesn't work. How can I enable this?

[cwickert]

Add "synclient TapButton1=1" to /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart (or ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart).

Regards,
Christoph

Why this doesn't work for me? This is my/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/ autostart:


@lxpanel --profile LXDE
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE
@xscreensaver -no-splash
synclient TapButton1=1


Was I wrong with something? Thanks.

Do you have a ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart that overwrites the global settings?

Please run "synclient -l" after login to see if the option is available on your hardware and if was applied.
