Installed GNOME shell - no change.

The hardware (Samsung n-130) cannot handle 64-bit.

On Kubuntu 18.04 beta, if tap-to-click is enabled the same behaviour occurs: the touchpad appears to be intermittently unable to differentiate between a single finger tap and a two finger tap when single finger tapping; it does not have the reverse problem, two finger taps are never mistaken for single finger taps. Occasionally the secondary context menu appears when merely moving the pointer.

As I generally don't use tap-to-click for right click (two-finger-tap) it struck me that if I could turn off two finger tapping or change the response to a two finger tap from right to left click using the libinput settings I would be able to effectively avoid the problem. I know it is possible to change the response to 1,2,3 clicks from l,r,m to l,m,r but don't know if it's possible to change it to l,l,l.
