Created attachment 1057416 [details] How my W540 touchpad currently behaves This is a really late followup to bug 1241685. I've attached two images, which show what the behavior of the W540 touchpad currently is, and what I expect it to be. libinput doesn't seem to expose enough xprops to configure the touchpad to do this.

gsetting set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad click-method 'fingers' should do the trick
Indeed, I have been running with that pref set for a few days and it's what I want. Could a quirk be added to the Lenovo touchpad so that it's automatically detected as a click pad? Also, the touch zones on the top are still nearly impossible to hit.
