It's amazing that in August 2015, this but filed in 2006 is still
affecting people. I sincerely hope that I'm an outlier.
I'm using a 2-button built-in touchpad as my pointing device to my
system 76 laptop. To fix this annoying click-and-miss-to-drag-resize-
window-or-select-text issue I edited the following two files:
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-evdev-trackpoint.conf
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-evdev-quirks.conf
and set
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
in both files. This fixed the problem in 14.04.1 Trusty Tahr for my
2-button laptop.
Here is my "xinput list"
xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=12 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Sleep Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ BisonCam, NB Pro id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]
Ffs, people, it's 2015. Get your shit together. :)
