[Bug 862094] Re: Apple Magic Trackpad: 2-finger click does a left-click instead of right-click

 

Found the problem. xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is defaulting to any
click = button 1. Obviously...

The workaround is simple:
    synclient ClickFinger2=3
or:
    xinput set-prop 'Apple Wireless Trackpad' 'Synaptics Click Action' 1 3 2


** Description changed:

  When I try to right-click with the Apple Magic Trackpad using two
  fingers, it just does a regular left click. Strange, because multi-touch
  seems to be working -- two finger scrolling is working perfectly.
  
  Note: I have tap-to-click turned off so am using the physical button
  built into the Magic Trackpad.

+ synclient ClickFinger2=3

+ xinput set-prop 'Apple Wireless Trackpad' 'Synaptics Click Action' 1 3 2
