[Bug 762768] [NEW] cannot select text with left click with touchpad

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

I am using Kubunt 11.04 with xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.3.99+git20110116 on a HP dv7 with Synaptics Touchpad (model: 1, fw: 7.4, id: 0x1e0b1).
I can't highlight text or move windows. On the same laptop with Kubuntu 10.10 the touchpad works?
When my thumb is an the area, which is marked as the left mouse button and touching with a second finger in the middle of the touchpad "scrolling" is started. This behavior  makes selection of text or dragging windows impossible.
