I use syndameon for this.

For example, to disable tapping and scrolling for 0.5 seconds after each keypress (ignoring modifier keys like Ctrl), use

I did that (but used the "1" option) and it borked something. I no longer get a graphical desktop. I can login via terminal but startx does nothing.dolphin_oracle wrote:in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/synaptics.conf file, and then log out and log in should do the trick.Code: Select all

Re: How to disable touchpad tapping in antiX 17?
Did you put the option in line with the other options in the file?
I tried it here and it certainly turned off tapping and scrolling.
Otherwise, I guess take it back out.

I put a # in front of the original line and kept the "1" inline with the other options.dolphin_oracle wrote:Did you put the option in line with the other options in the file?

I also logged in via the terminal and re-edited the file to remove the new line and kept the original line without the # but something is still broken.
