I am also experiencing this issue on the eee pc 900.  On 8.04-9.04, two-finger 
click triggered a middle click.  In the 9.10 beta it triggers a right click.  3 
fingers trigger a middle click, but I find this very difficult and 
uncomfortable to do, which means I cannot comfortably open duplicate tabs in 
firefox or select/paste text using middle click.  Middle click should be 
triggered by a two finger tap, since right click has a physical button on all 
pc touchpads I've seen, while a multifinger tap is the only way to middle 
click.  The easiest and most intuitive configuration is:
 <left physical button> or <single finger tap> = left click 
<two finger tap> or <simultaneous left and right physical buttons> = middle 
click
<right physicial button> or <three finger tap> = right click

This does seem like a simple fix.

Action for middle and right click is reversed since jaunty
