I was hit by this bug as well, and did some digging around. It seems like the middle-click-to-scroll functionality on thinkpad keyboards is now enabled by default. To fix this (rather, to get back the old behavior), edit the file "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-evdev- trackpoint.conf", and change the Option "EmulateWheel" to "false". Restart X and you should now be able to resize windows with alt-middle- click just fine! xev also reports the correct events after I made this change.
There's plenty more information on this page, for thinkpad keyboard users: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_configure_the_TrackPoint -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897131 Title: some mouse events are lost To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/897131/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
