Bug Description
Ubuntu Gutsy
Ubuntu Intrepid daily, 20081022
Ubuntu does not supply, by default, any intuitive method to right-click on a MacBook or other Mac that has zero or one trackpad or mouse buttons.
In Mac OS X, right-clicking is simulated by placing two fingers on the trackpad and clicking, or by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking with the trackpad or the mouse. In Ubuntu Gutsy, the only way to right-click out-of-the-box is to tap on the tracplackpad with three fingers - far from intuitive. And in Ubuntu Intrepid, there is apparently no way set up by default to right click at all. Could something more along the lines of OS X's defaults be used instead?
This causes failure in step 2 of the Ubuntu Desktop Live session testing. <https:/

Why is a sane default configuration dependant on SHM being on? This config can easily be put into xorg.conf or the driver itself.
