But.. isn't that backwards? You're saying it's a consistent user experience for a user to come from another OS (be it WIndows, OSX etc) where touchpad tap is enabled by default... to one where it's now disabled?. That's not a consistent user experience at all.
I'm not saying we should be consistent with Windows or OS X. I don't know what the default settings are there. I'm saying that we should be consistent in our user experience.
And my personal opinion (disabled by default) is based on seeing people getting confused when something clicks on the screen while they didn't press a button: it harms more the people who don't expect this behavior when it is enabled by default than the people who expect it when it is disabled by default.
Good point... that is actually the reason I went hunting for some way to control the touchpad tap in 11.2... adding a 1 or 2 second delay after typing stops to enable the touchpad really helps with this.
Like I said.. I'm on the fence with the default... and as long as there's a way to re-enable it in the major DEs, we're covered... sadly the KDE4 solution is rather... poor... unless kcm_touchpad (preferred) or Synaptiks (second choice) is installed by default with KDE4.

For KDE synaptiks _is_ installed by default on 11.3. To configure your touchpad: Systemsettings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Touchpad

Offcourse you are right.... I am deeply ashamed! I did look there, but i had to scroll down (with left button down while dragging) to get to that section.. All that fuss about nothing, i had simply could have resized that window, to see all options at once... Options enough, np at all.. I am glad this works now ;-) My thanx are crushing.. -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball, aka M9.
