Public bug reported: Hi,
On ASUS K451 laptop, middle click or 3 finger-tap does not work natively. There is no middle button on touchpad, so I am trying to emulate the middle click. I followed these instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Quirks#A2-button_Mice , but it did not work: 1. Create a file named /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/middle-mouse- button.conf with the following contents: Section "InputClass" Identifier "middle button emulation class" MatchIsPointer "on" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on" EndSection 2. If you use GNOME 3 or Unity, an additional step is needed. Execute the following command gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.mouse middle-button-enabled true Otherwise, GNOME 3's settings will override X's. Step 2 returned: key « middle-button-enabled » doesn't exist ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.10.1-1ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-36.55-generic 4.4.16 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-36-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Sep 17 20:21:59 2016 DistUpgraded: 2016-08-28 11:12:55,512 ERROR got error from PostInstallScript ./xorg_fix_proprietary.py (L'exécution du processus fils « ./xorg_fix_proprietary.py » a échoué (Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type)) DistroCodename: xenial DistroVariant: ubuntu InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-05-10 (495 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20150218.1) MachineType: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
