Bug ID: 95280
Summary: Middle button not working in X11 the same as with
synaptics driver
Product: Wayland
Version: unspecified
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: libinput
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I recently switched from synaptics to libinput driver in X11 (xorg 1.18.3). But
I lost some features using the touchpad's middle button, it seems to ignore
long pressure. Touchpad is AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad with 3 buttons.
1) With xv I cannot do the rectangular selection [ref.
http://www.trilon.com/xv/manual/xv-3.10a/control-window-5.html - "You can grab
an arbitrary region of the screen by clicking the Middle mouse button and
dragging a rectangle in exactly the same way you draw a cropping rectangle.
When you release the (middle) mouse button, the contents of this rectangle will
be read from the screen and loaded into xv. "]
2) I cannot do the "fast" selection-copy with nedit [ref.
http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/lab/labman/nedit/n2.html - The middle mouse button can
be used to make an additional selection (called the secondary selection). As
soon as the button is released, the contents of this selection will be copied
to the insert position of the window where the mouse was last clicked (the
destination window).]
And so on.
I don't know whether this is due to an incorrect xorg.conf configuration
