[ubuntu-uk] Right Mouse Click
Good thinking, Bodsda! Found it and this is the output but not quite sure what to make of it, I've put the debug here as it was too big: http://www.brucebeardall.com/debug.html (John, thanks for getting me started) Cheers Bruce On 5 March 2011 07:13, wrote: > Look in the directory that you ran the xev command from - I don't know why > he was expecting it to be in /tmp > > Bodsda > Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device > > -Original Message- > From: Bruce Beardall > Sender: ubuntu-uk-boun...@lists.ubuntu.com > Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2011 22:50:16 > To: UK Ubuntu Talk > Reply-To: UK Ubuntu Talk > Subject: Re: [ubuntu-uk] Right Mouse Click > > -- > ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/ > > -- > ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/ > -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Hi John, Let me explain how the redirect works. When you use > somefile.log after a command, that means send any output from the command to somefile.log Because we didn't specify an exact location for the file, it gets created in the current working directory. If we had run this xev > /tmp/somefile.log Then it would be in the /tmp directory.

I've had the same problem on both Intel and AMD based systems and playing with the live version of Natty last night appears that the problem is persisting into the next version. Regards Bruce There is a way of checking to see if the right click is working open a Terminal and enter xev > right-click-debug-output.log it will bring up a box, right click in the box, then close then go to /tmp and you should find the right click debug file, which should show you if there is a problem I hope that works, I got shown once how to do it... -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Hi All Anyone else having a problem with the right mouse click working properly since installing Maverick? I've had the same problem on both Intel and AMD based systems and playing with the live version of Natty last night appears that the problem is persisting into the next version.
