It's amazing that in August 2015, this but filed in 2006 is still
affecting people.  I sincerely hope that I'm an outlier.

I'm using a 2-button built-in touchpad as my pointing device to my
system 76 laptop.  To fix this annoying click-and-miss-to-drag-resize-
window-or-select-text issue I edited the following two files:

/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-evdev-trackpoint.conf
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-evdev-quirks.conf

and set

Option  "Emulate3Buttons"       "false"

in both files.  This fixed the problem in 14.04.1 Trusty Tahr for my
2-button laptop.

Here is my "xinput list"

⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
