16.04 - Elantech touchpad not working - Ask Ubuntu
my touchpad doesn't allow tapping single , double click. on researching, came across xinput
. on navigating xinput list
> xinput list-props [device number]
. found libinput tapping enabled
had value 0
. changed 1
using command xinput set-prop 13 "libinput tapping enabled" 1
. started working. after rebooting system, tapping again doesn't work , value changed 0
. how make change permanent?
the easiest way, gui, via startup applications- can create commands run @ startup.
simply add command(s)
xinput set-prop 13 "libinput tapping enabled" 1
(you need add single entry per command), , reboot.
if want via terminal, edit .xsessionrc
file (or create in ~/ or /etc/x11), adding xinput
commands that.
