Hello everyone. I hope that all is going well for you.

A while back I remember reading about enabling touchpad tapping in this forum. I believe that the individual was ultimately answered by anti with a very easy solution. For the life of me, I can't find it. Does anyone recall the post? I'd really appreciate it if someone could direct me to it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dave

Found Antis reply this thread Cuttlefish
For touchpad tapping, try this:

Run the following two commands to immediately make it work:

#modprobe -r psmouse
#modprobe psmouse proto=imps

and if that works, to make this change permanent, create a file such as touchpad.conf under /etc/modprobe.d/, and put the following line in it:

options psmouse proto=imps
