@OP: do you have xserver-xorg-input-evdev installed?

What does this say

synclient

Check the TouchPadOff value.

Also check

xinput --list

And use this for the touchpad device ID:

xinput --list-props $ID

For configuration copy the template file from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-synaptics.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-synaptics.conf and add the desired options as per synaptics(4).

I think the root cause of this is the use of libinput, as opposed to synaptics. Here is some info from Ubuntu:

Sounds like you already installed xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, as they suggest. I think you have to adjust the touchpad via synaptics/xorg conf files, as I dont believe LXQT Keyboard and Mouse provide a gui for touchpad.

Hi, I have installed ASCII 2.0, LXQT desktop environment: there is not a touchpad enabled. I have downloaded xorg synaptic drivers but in gui preferences there is only mouse option and not touchpad. Is there a solution? Thanks
