[Bug 874237] Re: Emulate3Buttons option does not work anymore to enable emulation of a middle button

 

I'm having the same problem.  Emulate3Buttons does not work.  I'm using
a logitech wheel mouse, part of the MX5500, so pressing the wheel
toggles the operation of the wheel itself rather than sending middle-
click.  With Emulate3Buttons, I was happy enough.

I tried changing the relevant section in
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf to:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "evdev pointer catchall"
        MatchIsPointer "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "evdev"
	Option "Emulate3Buttons" "True"
EndSection

...but, no dice.  This is what I had to do in 11.04 to make it work; but
it doesn't seem like it's working.  Very frustrating; I use that
copy/paste shortcut all the time.

Anybody have any good workarounds?
