Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
I am using Kubunt 11.04 with xserver-
I can't highlight text or move windows. On the same laptop with Kubuntu 10.10 the touchpad works?
When my thumb is an the area, which is marked as the left mouse button and touching with a second finger in the middle of the touchpad "scrolling" is started. This behavior makes selection of text or dragging windows impossible.

hi,
just updated my system. xorg-input- synaptics 1.3.99+ git20110116ubun tu11 xorg-input- synaptics 1.3.99+ git20110116ubun tu12.
xserver-
was replaced with
xserver-
touchpad - behavior did not change.
changing shold from 0 to 50
AreaLeftEdge from 0 to 2000
JumpyCursorThre
made it possible to select text. (before I got the context menu)
the solution is not very good, because with AreaLeftEdge=2000 left side of touchpad is completely blocked.
greetings
reinhard
