Basically when you right-click the menu flashes up and then disappears. If you are experiencing it, you would know it. The reason I mentioned that the right click menu in Chrome was fine was to commuicate that it does not appear to be either a Unity/Gnome issue in general or a mouse hardware issue with the button etc. IMHO, it is definitely an issue with the DR GUI on Linux (Ubuntu). Hmm, I can do a quick Fedora test as well.
