I just wanted to add two new notes to this bug report: 1. When I reported it, I was using a beta of 18.04, right-click didn't work either by clicking on the area of the trackpad that is supposed to be reserved for right-click or by using two-finger click. The former is still true in the full released version, but the later seems to be fixed, albeit, it is quite difficult and requires very precise timing and finger spacing to achieve a right-click (I get a successful right- click with two fingers about 20% of the time).
2. I have done a clean install on a different laptop with completely different hardware, and I am seeing exactly the same problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1761834 Title: Right-click doesn't work Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I decided to try out the beta for 18.04 from 17.10. Upon upgrading, I discovered that right-clicking no longer works on my trackpad, and right-clicks are handled as left-clicks would be. Two-finger right click does not work either. If I plug in a mouse with a physical right button, right clicking does work.
