Disable trackpad tap to click?

[Member Halian]

I just installed antiX on my ThinkPad SL510 and can find no way to disable the tap-to-click misfeature of its trackpad. My Google-fu keeps pointing me to solutions that presuppose the existence of graphical tools not available in antiX or, worse, systemd. So what can or should I do to rid myself of this misfeature?

I’m pretty sure you could find that here by searching (click Forum, then Search Forum from the pulldown) and search for disable touchpad tapping and find my post with that in my settings…

The command you want to add to your startup is:

# disable touchpad tapping for button1 so I don't click by mistake when my hand moves.  lines beginning with # are treated as comments
synclient tapbutton1=-1 &
