Hi
Changed it to this (deleted the > after the word entry <entry>: <entry name="tap_to_click" mtime="1262834612" type="bool" value="true"/>
Still no tapping!
Does the order of the statements in the .xml file matter?
I doubt it.
Lynn, here's my entire file which works for me:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <gconf>

<entry name="scroll_method" mtime="1262834635" type="int" value="0"/> <entry name="tap_to_click" mtime="1262834612" type="bool" value="true"/>
</gconf>
I'm no expert on xml or gnome so I can't answer your questions. The above works fine on mine. I screwed up on the one I sent before. Actually, I blame it on a dumb keyboard. Once upon a time you would do something like a SUSEconfig to reinitialize it. Doesnt seem to work on 11.3. You might try to log out and back in or as A last resort do the windows reboot... That may do it.
Sorry I cant be more specific. Hopefully some xml guru will jump in.

Hi Richard. Thanks for trying. but still no luck with the new .xml file. Everything else works except the tapping either on logout and reboot.
Anyone else use XFCE on 11.3? As you say, let's hope some xml or xfce guru can help. Or how I could pass a parameter to gsynaptics. The latter doesn't seem to accept parameters. YOu have to click it to get to the touchpad then click again to enable clicking. Which works so I know it's not hardware. It also works with kde4 where you can set tapping and it stays put. In xfce, I have to enable it each time. A pain!
