I have something new to report:

With the latest updates on Karmic Koala, since Alpha 3, to me this issue improved a lot.

$ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-evdev
xserver-xorg-input-evdev:
  Installed: 1:2.2.2-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1:2.2.2-1ubuntu2
  Version table:

But no means It's over.

I still get, from time to time, some double clicks. But is definitively less often.

I do, always get a left double-click, if I try to:

click the mouse left button with my finger positioned a little bit closer to the middle of the mouse. (my mouse button is long)

when I do a left click on gnome-terminal. i.e., trying to copy the apt-cache policy I've just posted above, sometimes it happens to open another gnome-terminal window.

I hope the devs have a look on this issue, before Karmic goes gold.

@droll

I suggest to you to try Karmic Alpha 4.

It should be out tomorrow, download the LIVE CD and give it shot.
