How to install Touchpad-Indicator

[Member Wallon]

Dear Users,

I found on the forum the way to download touchpad-indicator in the MX Linux distribution. I downloaded version 21 because I use antiX 21.

http://mxrepo.com/mx/repo/pool/main/t/touchpad-indicator/

During the installation, it does not find all the dependencies.

If I understand correctly, it is impossible to install this package on antiX 21?

LANGUAGE=en sudo apt install '/home/wallon/Téléchargements/touchpad-indicator_2.2.3-0mx21_all.deb'

https://www.maketecheasier.com/fix-touchpad-not-working-linux/ is one article you can find that may be helpful.
In the past I’ve written articles about it. “Synaptics” is usually the description of the Touchpad device, but as you can see from the article, the relevant package varies from distribution to distribution.

I’ll see if I can still locate my post in this forum, and if so I’ll reference it in a reply for convenience.
