Re: DELL Touchpad tap click not working

I solve problem

First i was install the libinput with "sudo pacman -S libinput" and then add the following lines to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf
    Option "Tapping" "True"
    Option "TapingDrag" "True"
    Option "DisableWhileTyping" "True"
    Option "AccelProfile" "adaptive"
    Option "AccelSpeed" "0.4"
    Option "SendEventsMode" "disabled-on-external-mouse"

also remove synaptic.conf file from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Thx
