Package: xserver-xorg-input-mouse
Version: 1:1.3.0-1
Severity: normal
Every now and then (approx. once a day) the Emulate3Buttons feature
stops working such that pressing left and right button simultaneously
becomes equivalent to pressing the right button alone. In particular,
pasting with left+right doesn't work anymore.
However, pressing the wheel (=middle button) still gives the desired effect.
Restarting the X server solves the problem temporarily.
Other people seem to observe the same behaviour, but attribute it
to specific X applications, see e.g.
#478478: gnome-terminal: copy/paste using the middle mouse button is broken.
Regards,
Gernot
