[Bug 907549] Re: Quirk for 2-button mouse: Kensington Trackball

 

I have this hardware and can provide whatever troubleshooting is
necessary.

The trackball is reported as "Primax Kensington Eagle Trackball" and
appears to be recognized as having 3 buttons. The trackball has only two
buttons, a scroll ring (that does not click as a button), and the ball
(also, does not click).

Evdev Middle Button Emulation set to 1 works.
