So tapping is disabled. This is how it looks on my laptop:
Synaptics Tap Action (287): 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 3, 2
"man 4 synaptics" should tell you how to configure tapping in xorg.conf
(in short you should set the TabButton* options) but
gpointing-device-settings saying that tapping is enabled sounds like a
bug there. I'll reassign the bug report accordingly.
...It even looks like this bug:
