Xinput -set-prop -type=int -format=8 "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" "Synaptics Two-Finger Scrolling" 1 0 # vertical scrolling, horizontal scrolling - values: 0=disable 1=enable A two finger touchpad scroll freezes screen when using Office 365 Excel when on document using OneDrive. Xinput -set-prop -type=int -format=32 "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" "Synaptics Two-Finger Width" 0 # Below width 1 finger touch, above width simulate 2 finger touch. Xinput -set-prop -type=int -format=32 "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" "Synaptics Two-Finger Pressure" 125 # list current synaptics device properties: xinput list-props '"AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint"' In the end, I found this forum post, which highlighted this little shell script : #!/bin/bash Even install gpointing-device-settings didn't work, although at least the option to enable it wasn't greyed out there.
