      I have an HP M4t8 laptop.
      The touch pad works fine but i cant see how to change the settings for it.
      I have the mouse settings but it doesn’t let me alter the touch pad. eg I want to switch of “tapping” and change its sensitivity.
      Im still evaluating it by loading from a usb pen.
      I have Ubuntu on my laptop but if I can get Antix to work the way i want I will change.
      regards
      Simon

        I use synclient in my startup. It has the options you are asking about. You could install it from the repo if its not already.
