Macbook touchpad 2/3 button madness

2013-09-08 Thread Lonni J Friedman
I've got a Macbook Pro 10,1 (retina, 2012 vintage), on which I recently installed Fedora19. Most everything is working fine, except the touchpad in X. The problem that I'm having is when I attempt to use two or three fingers on the touchpad to simulate a right or middle (button) click of a mouse.

Freedesktop.org vs. LibreOffice.org

What is the connection, if any, between Freedesktop.org and LibreOffice.org? I have found a small bug in Libre Office Calc and have reported it to the Freedesktop bugzilla, where it is languishing. Should it have been submitted to LibreOffice instead? Would it be extremely rude to submit it to bo

Installing bootloader to sba1

I have a machine on which I want to install Fedora 19. During the install, I'm given the option to install a bootloader, but not 'where' other than a disk (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb). I use a 3rd party tool to multi boot, so I would like the boot loader to be installed on /dev/sdb1. Is this possible to
