My touchpad is detected (scroll up/down works) but touch-click does not
work. In my search I found a solution but it did not work with the
following error:
$ synclient tapbutton1=1
Command 'synclient' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
Do you want to install it? (N/y)y

Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?
Any pointers? I went settings- mouse/touchpad but the check box to enable
tap selection isn't there.
