If you have an elantech touchpad it seems there is a regression with the newest synaptics driver: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/873482
"It is almost certainly 200_fix_four_tap.patch, it reintroduces the finger counting which is not valid for our touchpads." "And merged upstream now, so I guess it finally is an upstream bug. http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/9628/ http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input- synaptics/commit/?id=da461b91659d0c64aa6827e065aee2682116a57e (a week after I get the upstream bug closed...)" Here's the upstream report that was initially closed because it was an ubuntu issue, but now does seem to be upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/process_bug.cgi Its causing 3 finger tap to be recognized as 1 finger AGAIN. I was so glad this was finally fixed only to see it regress late in the dev cycle, just awesome :/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mactel Support, which is the registrant for Mactel Support. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/754000 Title: Running Unity disables Xorg's 3-finger click support (middle click) Status in Mactel Support: Invalid Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Xorg fails to recognize a 3-finger click as a middle-button-click when Unity is running and instead thinks it's a left-click. This bug only happens in Unity 3D. It does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome Shell. Please note this bug is about physically "clicking" a clickpad with 3 fingers. 3 finger tapping is different and has been intentionally overridden in Unity 3D by new gestures.
