Description Tony Blackwell 2014-06-13 05:18:11 CEST
Description of problem:Classical DVD x86_64 4.1 as at 13June installed just fine on this older acer extenza 5620Z with pentium dual T2370 processor and integral mobile GM965/GL960 graphics.  Of note however is that the SynPS/2 synaptics touchpad does not support mouse taps under either Cinnamon or Mate or Gnome.  Both xfce4 and KDE4 support tapping normally.

It is correctly set in config ?
Comment 2 Frank Griffin 2014-06-14 17:22:50 CEST
I think the point is that GNOME (at least) doesn't have it turned on by default, which I can confirm.  Since the other two re GNOME derivatives, they are probably inheriting this behavior.

Comment 3 Tony Blackwell 2015-04-27 12:37:12 CEST
Problem remains as at M5 RC
Can we turn on this behaviour for the M5 release?

actually this is a duplicate in fact, and according to https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3780#c10 it's a upstream preference

and you should had used 'enabled' instead of supported
