Title:
Middle click not working after upgrade to 12.04
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After upgrading my middle click doesn't work. I have a Lenovo Ideapad
s10-3t which has a tiny touchpad. I used to press the middle area of
the lower edge to get a middle click, to, i.e. close Firefox tabs,
open links in new tabs and most importantly: Use the cut buffer to
copy and paste.
I've read https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/mouse-middleclick.html
and it recommends three finger tapping (I can't change that behaviour anyway,
can I? The mouse settings dialouge doesn't allow me specify whether I want to
have three finger tapping for middle click). Anyway, according to xinput, my
touchpad only recognises two fingers:

So there seems to be a bug in Ubuntu forcing me to use three finger
tap altough I can't do it.
I can get my behaviour back by doing "synclinent
EmulateMidButtonTime=75".
I expected Ubuntu to not have that regression in first place, then a
way to tell Ubuntu whether I want (or can) use three finger tap and
then activate that option mentioned above automatically if I only have
a two finger touchpad.
FWIW: Here is my synclient output:
