Fedora tries to make various desktop environments available to its
|
||||
users. Since Fedora tries to
|
||||
link:Staying_close_to_upstream_projects[stay as close to upstream] as
|
||||
possible, we follow the various defaults selected by the desktop
|
||||
environment upstreams. Generally, this entails a disabled touchpad click
|
||||
by default. This wiki page tries to compile the different methods that
|
||||
can be used to enable "tapping" on various desktop environments.
|
||||
|
||||
*Please note that this is only a resource to aid our users. For
|
||||
discussions on this setting, please talk to the relevant DE upstream.
|
||||
Fedora does not intend to make any changes to upstream defaults.*
