 *NOTE* - If you are on a **laptop** and using the **touchpad** during the 'click your username' section, you will need to actually use the **physical mouse buttons**. Trying to 'tap-to-click' does NOT work on this pre-login screen. (I am not exactly sure WHY, but it's just a thing.) After you get into the OS, tap-to-click should be enabled by default, and will work as it is supposed to. *NOTE* - If you are on a **laptop** and using the **touchpad** during the 'click your username' section, you will need to actually use the **physical mouse buttons**.

 +**Mouse/Touchpad settings** - since I am mentioning the mouse here, I figured mentioning the mouse settings I use would be good as well. Once you're in the desktop environment, click the menu (bottom left, the 'start menu' replacement in Ubuntu with Cinnamon Desktop) and type 'mouse'. This will take you to 'mouse/touchpad' settings. Under the 'touchpad' options, click 'reverse scrolling direction'. That's usually the only setting required there, but if your mouse is 'bouncy' or 'acting weird' at all, you can set 'custom acceleration' and change both (usually about middle of the slider is good for most with issues) so that the mouse 'acts right'.
