ALPS Touchpad Will Not Tap To Touch Or Edge Scroll (Kali-Rolling-Gnome)

AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint id=11 [slave pointer (2)

DELL 1545 Inspiron Laptop.

Cannot enable tap-to-click or edge-scrolling.

This is typically a problem with new installs on most distros; but update/upgrade usually solves this problem. Unfortunately, this did not help. I've also read the other threads. They were no help either.

I suspect I will either need to install a different driver package, or edit a config file. I can do either; but I don't know where to start.

Any help appreciated.

Waiting for reply too
