LMDE XFCE: touchpad does not emulate clicking

LMDE XFCE: touchpad does not emulate clicking

Post by aljoriz » Thu Mar 24, 2011 5:54 am

I have installed LMDE XFCE 32bit on my Asus 1005ha EEEpc. My problem is the touch pad can emulate a click by tapping on the touch pad.

Any advise will be appreciated.

Is your trackpad listed in Settings->Mouse ?

If not, try the following terminal command :

thanks for the reply. It took me 15min to google: «debian xfce touchpad» and read through every result and here is the solution

sudo gedit /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf

copy-paste the following over the entries:
Section «InputClass»
Identifier «touchpad catchall»
Driver «synaptics»
MatchIsTouchpad «on»
Option «TapButton1» «1»
Option «VertEdgeScroll» «1»
EndSection

Save then go back to the terminal and type sudo reboot

on the reboot all will be well.

MODS: Pls marked as solved

I do not know why, BUT after I applied those changes on my Thinkpad x220, boot into the system did not work. I have reverted the file to its original state via a Live environment.

Now that you mention this, I had the same problem. The fix worked the first time, but I had to reinstall my system for various reasons. I tried to apply it again, and I couldn’t get it to boot. Only thing I did differently the second time was type the data into the file manually, rather than copy and paste it.

Many thanks for the solution, I just copy the part that involved the touch, and no the one relating to vertical edge or something. (Maybe that part caused the boot problem for the other users)

Hi, I have the problem with the touchpad and I tryed to fix it using this post, however, something were wrong during my procedure application and now y have the following problem when my computer starts: startpar: service(s) returned failure: rc.local . failed!

Please note that I errased ALL the content of the file and pasted:

Section «InputClass»
Identifier «touchpad catchall»
Driver «synaptics»
MatchIsTouchpad «on»
Option «TapButton1» «1»
Option «VertEdgeScroll» «1»
EndSection

I would like to restore the original content of file, or do something that bring my computer back! [I’m new in all this linux stuff]

Touchpad click not working Linux Mint xfce

Post by Praveen1234 » Mon Mar 28, 2022 2:54 am

My touch pad is working fine to move cursor but when I touch the touchpad it should consider it as a click and touch with two finger(at same time)should consider as right click but it’s not and I have to click the real button with touchpad which is annoying. anyway for this?

Configure as desired on Menu>Settings>Mouse and Touchpad (on Device menu select your touchpad and on Touchpad tab activate/check Tap touchpad to click on General as it would be disabled by default).

I use Xfce but I’m on KDE right now so I can’t try it. But AFAIK Xfce does not support this. See this from the Xfce docs:

I do not know why you say it is not supported by XFCE. My screenshot is from Linux Mint 20.2 XFCE, also see image on that link

and what they say in text:

Tap touchpad to click
When this option is selected, tapping the touchpad with your finger will preform the same action as clicking the primary mouse button. The device property Synaptics Tap Action will be set to 1 2 3 ….
To click, tap on the touchpad. To double-click, tap twice. To drag an item, double-tap but don’t lift your finger after the second tap. Drag the item where you want it, then lift your finger to drop.
