disabling tap to click

None of the old methods i used in #! before work anymore but I found a new solution:

$sudo apt-get install gpointing-device-settings
$gpointing-device-settings

If all goes well a gui should pop up where you can configure your touchpad and/or mouse settings! Might even be useful with some of the problems other people are having with their input devices.

Which directory is that in again? gpointing-device-settings doesn't actually work anymore. It works right after you install it then stops working once you restart. Gives a segmentation fault error. Tried both reinstalling dependencies in terminal and through synaptic. Here is some of the output from when I was trying to install them via the terminal:

edit: Nevermind, I googled it, and that worked thanks! (~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh) in case anyone else needs to know. Would still be nice to get gpointing-device-settings working.
