In investigated a bit further:
In Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) the command
synclient -l
shows the option:
ClickFinger3 = 1
In Ubuntu 10.10 (default) the command
synclient -l
shows the option:
ClickFinger3 = 2
So Ubuntu 10.10 seems to suffer from exactly the same behaviour as Suse
(for more information follow the link above).
man synaptics reveals the meaning of the ClickFinger3 option:
"Option "ClickFinger3" "integer"
Which mouse button is reported when left-clicking with three fingers. Set
to 0 to disable. Property: "Synaptics Click Action" "
>From this, I conclude that by default, in Ubuntu 10.10, a left-clicking
(?) with tree fingers is interpreted as a middle click.
Now - I had this issue when clicking with one finger, and I click the
left (pysical) button.
Changing this option should not affect me at all, however if I set the
option back to the original value (ClickFinger3 = 1) as suggested by
Kruffwuff, then my problems are gone.

Touchpad sends a middle click instead of left click.
