  Synaptics Clickpad functionalities incomplete: Right button area

  Fix Released
Status in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics source package in Precise:

Bug description:
  I use a Synaptics Clickpad touchpad. It has no physical buttons, the
  entire pad works like a button, and there is a right-click area where
  pressing the pad should register a right click. This feature does not
  work. In OpenSuSE 11.4 and 12.1, this worked.

  I saw somewhere that right-button area was marked as too late for
  Precise by Chase Douglas. When can we expect this functionality to
  work? Is there any workaround, like using the OpenSuSE package?
