Title:
  I cannot disable touchpad tapping because there is no option on the
  mouse preferences dalog and gsynaptics will not run.

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xfree86-driver-synaptics

  I am unable to disable tapping on my touchpad. I purchased an ASUS
  K70IO laptop and after some minor tweaking everything works fine, even
  the touchpad. However, I cannot stand touchpad tapping, so when I went
  to disable it, the option was not there. I have scoured the search
  engine results and cannot find anything that might help. I am not even
  sure what touchpad is even installed any more. I tried to use
  gsynaptics to disable tapping, but when I run it I get "GSynaptics
  couldn't initialize" You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf
  or XF86Config to use GSynaptics".

  However, there is no entry in xorg.conf for a touchpad, mouse, or
  pointing device and XF86Config file does not exist.

  I must be able to disable tapping. It is the most annoying and
  infuriating feature ever invented and the person who came up with it
  should be shot. At least metaphorically.

  I am using Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty.
