Same issue since Ubuntu 10.10 on a Samsung X20 notebook, with a "classical" standard 2-button synaptics touchpad. This touchpad worked fine on all previous versions of ubuntu - so I tagged the bug as regression.
The "left click sends a middle click"-issue appears in roughly 10% of the cases and resulted in a terrible usability: - Imaging using Firefox and a left click on a tab closes the tab in 10% of the cases. - Or clicking on a link opens a new tab - after 30 minutes of surfing you will end up with 20 tabs opened. - Same thing in nautilus - tabs randomly opened all over the place. The workaround suggested by Kruffwuff seem to work for me. Should this problem reported upstream? Or this this a downstream (Ubuntu+Suse) bug? -- Touchpad sends a middle click instead of left click. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/636720 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
