Synclient Commands not saving/persistent

Post by fohrums »

Code: Select all

Debian "Wheezy" 7.5 netinstall [straight-forward install w/ GNOME 3 as default]
Dell "LATITUDE" 2100 netbook
LXDE ver. 4+nmu1
[INTRO]
I have installed LXDE using Synaptics and I choose the option to log into this extremely lightweight desktop environment .
Althought the drivers work and i'm able to use touchpad to move the mouse and single-click there is (1) problem.

[PROBLEM]
Synclient commands not saving after exiting LXDE(but does work after a resume).

right-click (2-fingers tap) doesn't work by default. a quick fix would be:
... now, this command doesn't save when I leave LXDE.

Code: Select all

$ synclient TapButton2=3
[SUGGESTION] (that don't work)
navigating to this script file and adding the following command:

Code: Select all

# nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
......
synclient TapButton2=3
......
[FIX]
~none so far

[NOTE]
