[SOLVED] Touchpad right click problem

Post#1 by oranus » 09 Aug 2012, 10:22

Hi,
I get an error on some of the laptop which are DELL, Asus, Lenovo that right click doesn't work.
But right click works on an older version Porteus 1.1.

Thanks...

Is this across all desktops? Is it on laptops? Please try clicking both right & left at the same time ... do you get a context menu?

Please try reloading psmouse and see if you get right click back.

Code: Select all

rmmod psmouse && modprobe psmouse proto=imps
You can also play with the options

Hi brokenman

I test it on only laptops. I test it on Asus Ultrabook that I click at the same time right and left and I get context menu.
I reload psmouse and right click works.
I think it will solve problem if it add on rc.local but will you send new update?
I wait your update....

Thanks brokenman.

Thanks. I will see how wide the vector is and push an update if it is the majority that is affected.
