Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
I have an old HP nw8240 laptop. My synaptics touchpad has 3 buttons instead of the usual two. Ever since the upgrade to maverick the middle buttons above and below my touchpad behave as a left click.
I tested what events were generated by running xev and indeed whenever the middle button is pressed button 1 events show up. Interesting to note is that my external mouse works fine.
1) Ubuntu release: 10.10/maverick meerkat
2) The version of the package: IDK which package the bug really belongs to, but my
xserver-xorg is at 1:7.5+6ubuntu3 and
xserver-xorg-core is at 2:1.9.0-0ubuntu7 and
xserver-
3) What you expected to happen
Middle trackpad button to work as "button 2".
4) What happened instead
Middle trackpad button works as "button 1".

Hi bug reporters
First of all Ubuntu BugSquad thankyou to report the bug and help ubuntu to get more close to a bug free OS.
I think we can understand the situation better if we can get the logs of you xev, xmodmap -pp and synclient -l in separate comments.
