NEEDINFO because: clicking on the touchpad did execute a click before in windows, in $previous_distro, and when switching to Mageia alpha2 suddenly only the buttons work, and no longer the tap-to-click feature. Keywords:

(none) Ah you have upgrade ok perfect :) Assigned to the package maintainer. (Please set the status to 'assigned' if you are working on it) Keywords:

Triaged oh,m to be clear on that - I did not upgrade yet - it is still too alpha for me to really switch - this is while booting the Live iso - and I guess these are the settings that will be applied when installing the system. A windows user who is trying out Mageia will not be satisfied with the touchbad not responding on clicks anymore. On all machines/all drivers I have come across so far, disabling the tap-to-click requires user-interaction, but never the opposite. It simpler to understand that you can make the system ignore something than to understand that it is not broken, but not activated.

(none) still the same in beta3 live iso. While booting up (i.e. when choosing the language, accepting the license, choosing the keyboard layout) the touchpad-click works, but when gnome is booted, it stops working and has to be manually enabled. This is bad usability and contrary to users' expectations. What is the rationale behind disabling this by default? If you cannot name any reason, please change the default. Hi, This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment. Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2. Thanks :) Cheers, marja Keywords:
