<pre>Given you're assurances it does work, I tried adding this file to
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/touchpad.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Touchpad"
Driver "libinput"
MatchIsTouchpad "yes"
Option "ScrollMethod" "twofinger"
Option "Tapping" "true"
Option "TappingDrag" "true"
Option "DisableWhileTyping" "true"
EndSection
And now tapping works. So the real issues are:
- Tapping is not enabled at boot (but two fingered scroll is).
- "xinput set-props" doesn't work.
And for what it's worth, the pinch gesture described on has no effect I can
see. I tested it in gnome-terminal, firefox, pidgin, gvim, gimp, and an
evolution mail window.</pre>
