<p>You can change touchpad settings manually from the terminal.</p>
<p>I personally have a FLTK based application that I use to
fine-tune synaptic touchpad settings.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>open a terminal and type</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>synclient</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>This will list all your current settings if your touchpad is
supported by the synaptic drivers.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Then simply run synclient again when you find the setting you
want with the name and value</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>probably you want something like:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>synclient TapButton1=1</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>But, you can try each setting that you want to explore and it
will instantly change your settings. You probably need to save
these to a script to automatically be run each time you start
your session.<br>

<p>Israel:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thank you for providing a work-around for the problem. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Fortunately for me, the systems with the problem are only
test-systems. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Hopefully, this problem will be solved before I am to the point
of considering migrating my production systems to Lubuntu 19.04.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Though some people like command-line-interfaces, I hope this
work-around isn't the permanent solution to the problem. <br>
