I'm not really sure about the brand and make of my touchpad. It's on a
VAIO laptop and xinput lists it as " SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad". I
believe my case to be different from #873482 as 2-finger taps works fine
and xinput does NOT report anything from a 3-finger tap. I'm now back to
1.5.99.901-0ubuntu2 (precise) as it works flawlessly for me.

Title:
  Running Unity disables Xorg's 3-finger click support (middle click)

Status in Mactel Support:
  Invalid
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Xorg fails to recognize a 3-finger click as a middle-button-click when
  Unity is running and instead thinks it's a left-click.  This bug only
  happens in Unity 3D. It does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome Shell.

  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.
