Re: tap to click

Global config file:
'/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf'

If you want to set it per user basis, please first read http://www.q4os.org/dqa007.html#tchpad . You will need to run the command on session start, please see http://www.q4os.org/dqa011.html#desktop.6

And if anyone uses Scorpion you can edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/60-libinput.conf and change the line

Option "Tapping" "true"

to read

Option "Tapping" "false"

and remember this is a global setting (affecting all users).

Re: tap to click

Thanks for the quick replies, I must say that q4os is very nice, I have been using lubuntu on a very old flybook, which after the latest updates ran very hot, system load was high on tickover, I tried the live version of q4os and it ran a lot cooler so did a full install, even replacing my beloved puppy, I have now done a full install on an old tosh portege, runs like a dream, so I donated because I am so pleased with q4os, I may even replace mint on the thinkpad.

Thanks again.
