Hi Vincent,

The configuration is not going to be enabled by default now or in future Ubuntu releases because it conflicts with Unity gestures. If you want to enable it by default, it needs to be set in /etc/X11/xorg.conf like:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "touchpad 3-tap"
        Driver "synaptics"
        MatchIsTouchpad "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Option "TapButton3" "2"
        Option "ClickFinger3" "2"
EndSection

I believe that will work, though I haven't tried it myself.
