John Pye, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-synaptics REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

Previously, I was able to click the left 'button' of the clickpad (actually the bottom-left corner area, with my left index finger) then drag my right index finger around on the centre of the clickpad in order to select a region of text, drag an object, etc. Two-finger scrolling is still working correctly, but dragging has died. I saw some comments here (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuDesktop) about clickpad behaviour but considering that this was working in 11.10, and that message mentions no known regressions, I figured this still needed to be reported. And in fact, it says "When the button is pressed on a ClickPad device, a second finger may be used to drag the cursor. " which is exactly what isn't working now for me. The click and drag works if I click in the centre of the clickpad, but not if I click in the corner where I customarily do it.
