Bug Description

Binary package hint: gpointing-device-settings

I'd like to be able to disable touchpad hardware buttons but be still able to use the touchpad and to tap its surface to produce clicks. I don't find the related option in `synclient -l`.

This package has been removed from the Ubuntu development release, so I am closing all remaining open bug reports.

Sorry that we couldn't fix your problem properly, but gpointing-device-settings is dead upstream, buggy and completely unmaintained.
