just wanted to say I got hit by this really unintuitive bug when installing intrepid on my new macbook pro - F11 is used in emacs for devhelp-word-at-point and so I cant use this without disabling mouseemu - I think this is totally bogus - F keys should do what they are - ie send F key events - to

Confirmed on hardy. First gen macbook pro. F11 is used for fullscreen in gnome so it's really annoying and hard to figure out (google helps). Two finger "click" on the touchpad works fine for right-click. Maybe that should be default instead :) -- Mouseemu uses strange defaults https://bugs.

I guess cmd-click isn't that intuitive either (it's actually ctrl-click on OS X, but ctrl is little-used on OS X, like command/meta on Ubuntu) It is, however, physically easier to use than F11/F12. The ideal way to do right-click with Macs on Ubuntu, though, is probably two-finger tap - which I wi

OK, I admit I was trying on a PowerBook rather than a MacBook. I think anything will be non-intuitive to some (when you first encounter a Mac, is Command-click really obvious? it certainly wasn't to me), but perhaps we can make both combinations work or something like that. -- Mouseemu uses stra

In my experience, these keys do NOT generate the same scancode - on my MacBook one of them is 125 and the other is 126 (decimal - which mouseemu uses). Anyway, I know F11 and F12 have been used for ever, but this is quite possibly one of the most common issues mentioned in install walkthroughs fo

Left-Command and right-Command generate the same scancode and thus cannot be distinguished by the operating system. We chose F11 and F12 ages ago, long before mouseemu, and it's been that way for six releases of Ubuntu on powerpc now as well as a release on Intel Macs. I can't help feeling that ch
