Thank you for the troubleshooting help. The output you requested does
show "Tapping Enabled" set to 0. Is this the problem?

It could be.  You could try just running something like
`xinput --set-prop 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad' 'libinput Tapping
Enabled'`
and see if it helps.
You can use the ID of the device instead of the name, but the ID might 
change if you for instance boot the machine with an additional keyboard 
or something.  If it works, you can put it in your .xinitrc eor 
.xsession, and it should take effect every time you start X.
