Apparently, OS X does have the ability to do a right-click by two- finger-clicking feature (enabled together with two-finger-tapping). Doing the same will require some state tracking. Something to look into next. Still, the patch should improve the current experience as long as two-finger tapping is enabled.

The pointer can move, and a physical left-click works, but that's it. I can not get tapping to respond as I could using the Mactel PPA packages with Intrepid (Ubuntu 8.10). I added the attached FDI policy file for the touchpad, and manually added the module bcm5974 to my /etc/modules file, however, Xorg is not loading or is not recognizing the touchpad policies. This file worked on Intrepid. The custom bcm5974-dkms package from the Mactel PPA provided support in Intrepid. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mactel-support Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mactel-support More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
