[Third Replicator <710762@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS on a System 76 laptop, with a two
button built-in touch-pad (built into the laptop just below the
keyboard).  When I click to drag or resize a window there is a half
second delay, which annoyingly, causes me to fail to drag or resize the
window.   What should I do to eliminate that delay?  I was lead to
believe that it's related to 3-button emulation.  If so, how can I turn
it off?

Thank you.

Title:
  Middle mouse button no longer works

Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in xserver-xorg-input-evdev package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

  Since the update of xserver-xorg-input-evdev version 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu1,
  middle mouse button emulation (left and right click together) no
  longer triggers a middle click in Natty. I have since upgraded to
  version 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu3, but the middle mouse button still fails to
  function.

  A workaround is to add the following section to /etc/X11/xorg.conf,
  but workaround should not be necessary to provide standard X11
  functionality.

  Section "InputClass"
  Identifier "middle button emulation class"
  MatchIsPointer "on"
  Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
  EndSection

  1) Release:	11.04
  2) Package version xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu3
  3) Expect middle mouse button to perform Past action
  4) Middle mouse button fails to operate
