Interesting question.

This is described in

ug/27724 and the workaround is described as this:

Workaround is to go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf find the "Synaptics Touchpad"
(or whatever) section and add lines that say:

    Option "TapButton1" "3"
    Option "TapButton3" "1"

hi, all

i had read this wiki. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
and really it fix the scrollbar and click-drag problem of my tounchpad.

also i used a dapper and machine is A8H20Jc-DR. now i had a problem with  
left-hand mouse.
when i changed to left-hand mouse, the touchpad also changed. that's say
then i click on touchpad, it acted as a right-button function, a menu  
appearred.
if i changed to right-hand mouse, all is ok.

i had test the touchpad by xev. and touchpad is not create same click  
event as mouse did.

i want if some parameter can be add to SynapticsTouchpad part within  
xorg.conf to fix this.

very thanks,
