[Bug 1369969] [NEW] Middle button emulation works on lower buttons but not upper buttons on HP EliteBook 9470m

 

Public bug reported:

On an HP EliteBook Folio 9470m laptop, middle-button emulation (pressing
the left and right buttons simultaneously) works for the two buttons
"below" the trackpad (farther away from the keyboard) but not for the
two buttons "above" the trackpad (closer to the keyboard).  Both sets of
left and right buttons function normally as left and right "mouse"
buttons when not pressed together.  (Pressing the upper-left and lower-
right (or vice-versa) buttons simultaneously also does not simulate a
middle-button event.)
