This bugreport is hardly understandable. Please describe the issue once more and in more detail, please. Thanks.

I'm sorry, my English is not good!

with opensuse 11.2, to start a program (with the touchpad):
- you move the cursor over the icon (the program)
- to open it gives you two quick shots on the touchpad
- The application started

with openSUSE 11.3/11.4, to start a program (with the touchpad):
- moves the cursor over the icon (the program)
- to open it, I press the button (I can not make two hits on the touchpad)
- The application starts

possible, return to the opensuse 11.2

I hope I was clear. thanks

In case the KDE/GNOME frontends for synclient do not support the tap settings or no longer exist (I'm not sure) using

  synclient TapButton1=1
  synclient TapButton2=3
  synclient TapButton3=2

in your ~/.xinitrc is your friend. If ~/.xinitrc doesn't exist yet, copy ~/.xinitrc.template to ~/.xinitrc first. Hope this helps.

I believe tapping enabled vs. disabled has been discussed often enough. A decision has been taken.

Sorry to bother you again, but will turn to understand!

if I -> synclient TapButton1 = 1 is perfect! beautiful!

but I did not understand, how to make this change for ever, even if I restart the PC.

once you changed the old "xorg.conf", and now?

Thanks again for your attention, bye to Andrea

Adding it to your ~/.xinitrc makes it permanent. But I explained that before, didn't I?
