[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 432814] Re: Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
Today some updates to Lubuntu 12.04 change the behaviour to double tap = right click. I consider that a bug and would like to see it fixed. I have a right button my me EeePC. synclient TapButton3=3 TapButton2=2 fixes it temporarily. With every Fedora and Ubuntu release these problems crop up, I guess it is because some Gnome devs think the Mac way of doing things is always right.

Of course implementing a setting in gnome-mouse-touchpad would be desirable and I don't understand why they don't. KDE has a nice GUI configuration tab.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 432814] Re: Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
Because of this change in behavior, the usability of my eeepc is severely degraded. On this netbook, it is nearly impossible to click both hardware buttons at once because of how they were designed, so I relied heavily on the two-finger tapping method. Now that is gone. Since the touch-pad is pretty small, the already difficult three-finger maneuver becomes impossible. Thus, having two-finger tapping as middle click is necessary. Now I'm left without a sane middle click option, no more highlight-paste buffer, no more easy opening of tabs in firefox, etc. This switch in behavior seems unfounded to me. I'm dubious as to whether right click really is more frequently used than middle click for the majority of people; think of all the web browsing and copy-pasting that goes on. At the very least, there should be an easy way to change this behavior from the Ubuntu options by default instead of relying on hacks to change it. Sometimes Ubuntu is really intuitive and easy to use... and other times it takes hours to figure out how to change touch-pad options. -- Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432814 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 : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 432814] Re: Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
Bug confirmed in the Netbook Remix 10.04 (Lucid) release. Taps are still 1-2-3 instead of 1-3-2, and I don't see any configuration options in the Mouse preferences panel to change it. Two-finger scroll works like a scroll wheel, which clicks as mouse3 on most mice. A two-finger tap physically mirrors a chording click on a regular 2-button mouse/trackball/trackpad/trackpoint, which I expect to produce a mouse3 click as it has for more than a decade now. Up until a year ago, Ubuntu standardized on mouse3. All of our two-finger conventions point to mouse3. 1-2-3 makes the user experience inconsistent, too. Two fingers on the pad gives me mouse2, while two fingers on the buttons gives me mouse3? I didn't think we needed to discuss *whether* 1-3-2 was a valid decision, just how to bring it back. 1-2-3 should be a supported user customization, not a default. -- Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432814 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 : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I've reverted my changes to the gnome-settings-daemon and I did the same with synaptics driver default settings. Now we're more compliant with upstream's default settings (both Gnome and synaptics use 1 3 2 instead of 1 2 3).

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 432814] Re: Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
It's very difficult to find a really good title for a bug. In short: We don't use the buttons around a touch-pad. If we want to perform a click, we tap on the pad. The standard configuration until jaunty was, that tapping with two fingers performs a mouse3 click. Unfortunately this changed in karmic and lucid. Now we have to use three fingers in order to perform a mouse3 click, which can't be done by normal humans. I use these multi-touch capabilities very often and it would be great if lucid restores the old behavior. My use cases: * Scroll through websites by using two finger scrolling. * Click at items on the screen by using single-finger tapping. (mouse1) * Open links on websites in new tabs of Firefox by using two-finger tapping. (mouse3) * Open the context menu of an item by tapping on the right lower corner of the touch-pad with one finger.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 432814] Re: Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
As far as I'm concerned, we have some behaviour that a lot of users don't like, we have a patch to configure the behaviour the way anybody likes (and the patch is the debian patch, so it can be used with no additional issues), the patch is working and — please point our if I'm mistaken here — doesn't break anything being applied. The most sensible thing to do right now is to include this patch in Ubuntu version of gnome-settings-daemon and let people, not g-s-d default, deside for themselves. Whether the current default configuration is good for default or not is the whole other story, after all, Ubuntu is becoming known for controversial default settings — most users don't care about defaults as long as they can tweak things to they liking. As of now, the issue in question is untweakable. We have a patch to make it tweakable.

MacOS defaults: - I believe that it can be configured so that two finger tap acts as right click, but then again Mac mice haven't got a right button anyway, - two finger scrolling. Linux defaults *for years* before Karmic: - two finger tap as middle click, three finger tap as right click, - one finger scrolling on side of the touchpad, - I noticed that two finger scrolling is recently on by default, however it is sometimes hard to properly distinguish between two finger tap and two finger scroll, so I chose to disable scrolling. -- Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432814 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 : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 432814] Re: Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
David, please consider the following: nearly all touchpads have hardware buttons for right-click. Nearly none of them has a hardware button for middle-click. It takes an unhuman skill to perform a 3-finger tap, so with 2-finger tap assigned to right-button, the only usable way to perform a middle click is to plug in a mouse. Middle clicks are of great use in Linux (clipboard insertion to name one of the essential things), so having no way to do them is a bad bad choise. Anyway, that's not what the bug was about. The bug was about the fact that there was no way to change the default behaviour at all. Now there is a way (or will be, as soon as Alberto's upload builds), and that's the fix. What the default setting should be is another topic altogether. -- Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432814 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 : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

@Evgeny, oops, sorry if I read the bug incorrectly! If 3-tap truly takes takes an unhuman skill to perform, then it shouldn't be assigned any gesture. Yes, middle-click is a great and venerable feature that I sometimes use, and that many people commenting on this bug find indispensable. But more people use right-click than middle-click, and many new laptops are dropping physical buttons altogether (especially netbooks). I am not referring only to Macs, but I'd still wager that the number of users running Ubuntu on Apple laptops, where right-click is performed with 2-tap, has already exceeded the number of Ubuntu users who use 2-tap for middle-click. -- Touchpad: Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432814 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 : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
