    right click issues on Macbook: Debian testing

    Hi everyone,

    I have successfuly installed the latest Debian Testing on my Macbook and cannot figure out the right-click situation. I have tried control-clicking and others but nothing has worked thus far. I checked the wiki and they don't seem to have anything directy addressing it.

    Is there any key combination to emulate a right click or a way to set control-click in a config file? I have looked at xbset and not found much information on it.

    Thanks,
    Erik

    I installed Testing on my MacBook as well. I am currently using Brightside to run a script which switches the mouse button to button 3 when I go to one corner of the screen, and back to button 1 when I go to another. It is not convenient, but it works fine for me.

    This is described in a thread in the Installation forum.

    It's a very interesting thread, if I do say so myself.
