Hello Friends!
This is my system:
Host: laptop Kernel: 4.19.0-6-amd64 x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: Xfce 4.12.4
Distro: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
>From this web page, https://wiki.debian.org/SynapticsTouchpad
I tried this
$ mkdir -p /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
$ echo 'Section "InputClass"
Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "libinput"
Option "Tapping" "on"
EndSection' > /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf
$ systemctl restart lightdm
It did not work. I guess it's to be expected since I'm using Debian 10 and
not 9?
Any workaround?
Thank you very much!

Hi Friends! Forgive my ignorance, I am not an expert. How exactly do I attach the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log immediately after restarting lightdm and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf ? Also, content of which are do you want to see?

You can also probably select your file via your favorite file manager and drag&drop it to your answer for automatic attachment. Regarding /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf, you can do the same but as this file is very light, you can just type the following command and paste the result in your email: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf Best regards, l0f4r0

Please attach the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log immediately after restarting lightdm and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf (they are probably small enough to be accepted by the list) Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
