[Bug 754000] Re: Running Unity disables Xorg's 3-finger click support (middle click)

 

@gadepall, it seems like you might have been temporarily unable to reach
the required servers, or forgotten to configure the repository properly.
Please try:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vanvugt/unity
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

If that fails please contact the Ubuntu forums for further help, because
I don't believe there is a problem with the PPA.

Bug description:
  as soon as i put down three fingers, the love handles appear. on the
  macbook pro a middle click is done with a 3 finger click. this is very
  low priority, and i could even see a wontfix. there's a simple work
  around to just not put all 3 fingers down at the same time and then
  click after all 3 are down.

  Please note this bug is about physically "clicking" a clickpad with 3
  fingers. 3 finger tapping is different and has been intentionally
  overridden in Unity 3D by new gestures.

  This bug only happens in Unity 3D. It does not happen with Unity 2D or
  Gnome Shell.
