Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
Touchpad on HP ProBook 4720s (and as far as I know many other HP
ProBooks) use a single button, it detects 'left' or 'right' button
pressed by position where touchpad was touched.
Windows and proprientary driver distinct right click from left, but
current synaptics_drv.so does not.
Right now HP ProBook 4720s have only proprientary drivers for 2.6.32,
with module for X-server, wich crash server if used by force.
I believe implement left/right click-detection is not very hard...
Here dmesg data for synaptic touchpad:
