Comment 15 for bug 947354

Your folder structure shows usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

you should create a new directory:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

also have you checked to see via synclient if your touchpad is being recognised as clickpad:

synclient -l

if it says Clickpad=0 then your touchpad is not being recognised as a clickpad to enable this:

synclient Clickpad=1

to permanently add this as an option you can do either fo 2 things:

1. create a shell script:

/!#/bin/bash

sleep 3

synclient Clickpad=1

end

###

then add to your start up applications

or

you can add the clickpad option into the 51clickpad.conf file which is placed in the new created directory /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/:

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Default clickpad buttons"
MatchDriver "synaptics"
Option "ClickPad" "true"
Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "0"
Option "SoftButtonAreas" "50% 0 82% 0 0 0 0 0"
