No, it's not essential because you can use the buttons which are initialized correctly unless there's a real bug. Tapping is an optional feature on this touchpad and not required. Unlike on e.g. wacom tablets where we do enable it by default because there are no physical buttons. > There is no situation where someone with this device does not want the > tap-to-click functionality. You've asked every user of the T650 out there? Please don't make generic statements unless you have data to back it up. Your use-case does not necessarily match the use-case of everyone else. > While higher layers can try to fix the bad > decision made by the lower library, I believe it is the low-level library > task to provide a sane default while higher-level users must only have to > change this in exceptional cases. look, we made the decision to disable tapping unless it's required. Implying that this is insane doesn't get you brownie points with the developers who are working on this. This is a low-level library that is never exposed to the user directly, there is always at least one layer in between that can change any defaults at will. I believe KDE does so already for tapping, but I might be wrong on that.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
