Now that we've moved to LibInput, it seems like we should switch the default to have tap-to-click. This solves this case for users on the greeter in the easiest manner, imo

Can someone confirm that the fix was or wasn't yet merged into the release? With the latest updates prior to June 1 the issue is not yet resolved.

Hello Orif,

I just reinstalled eOS to confirm the issue. System is update till now. But still issue is present. But I think the focus on input is by default. So it sort the issue partially. Else i still can't tap via my touchpad. I am willing provide any stats needed regarding this issue.

Regards,
Karan
