[Bug 710762] [NEW] Middle mouse button no longer works

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

Since the update of xserver-xorg-input-evdev version 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu1,
the middle mouse button no longer functions in Natty. I have since
upgraded to version 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu3, but the middle mouse button still
fails to function.

A workaround is to add the following section to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but
workaround should not be necessary to provide standard X11
functionality.

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "middle button emulation class"
MatchIsPointer "on"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection

1) Release:	11.04
2) Package version xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu3
3) Expect middle mouse button to perform Past action
4) Middle mouse button fails to operate
