Installed fresh 18.04 LTS. Everything works fine except the touchpad. Thinkpad has touchpad buttons above it and they work fine, but the buttons under touchpad at the bottom only work as one left click. There is no option in settings to change that, it did work on Fedora 27 though. Is there anything I can change to add this funcionality? I tried THIS Touchpad right click doesn't work on touchpad, only the buttons above it. Thinkpad E480 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but had no success.
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad click-method areas
Also, i tried to do same with gnome tweaks, but that didn't help aswell.
Is there anything else i can do?

Did you modify any of your xorg.conf.d files or install any synaptics drivers? What is the output of the command: "ls /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/" ?

@PatKilg, i didn't modified any of those files. The output is:10-amdgpu.conf 10-quirks.conf 10-radeon.conf 40-libinput.conf 70-wacom.conf

Hmm. I think I made an assumption here. Please let us know the exact model of thinkpad.sudo dmidecode -t system | grep Productshould get you there.

Install and open gnome-tweak and go to Keybord & Mouse >>> mouse click emulation and just click on Area and close the window.

I already tried that as i mentioned at bottom of my question. By the way i have feeling that those setting doesn't work at all, because with any of those selections touchpad still works same(fingers mode).

It may be considered as a worked around, however it is not solving actual problem.
