| lirakis | hey FunnyLookinHat got my Galago ultrapro last night. I like it a lot so far, but i have one question... how do I "center click" with the mouse pad? | 17:03 |
|---|---|---|
| FunnyLookinHat | lirakis, Oh congrats! | 17:04 |
| lirakis | :) | 17:04 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Center click - that's a good question - I believe you would have to find a gesture utility and bind something like a three-finger click to that | 17:04 |
| FunnyLookinHat | or a key + click combo | 17:04 |
| lirakis | hum ok | 17:05 |
| FunnyLookinHat | I'm kind of a noob when it comes to desktop config... I was just googling like crazy yesterday to figure out how to switch the Alt + Command keys on my wife's 6 year old macbook w/ Ubuntu... | 17:05 |
| lirakis | normalyl its just been clicking both the right and left mouse buttons | 17:05 |
| FunnyLookinHat | I'd open a support ticket if I were you - the guys should know how to take care of it | 17:05 |
| lirakis | ok | 17:05 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Ah yeah - well it's a clickpad on that model - so I think you'd have to do a special bind | 17:05 |
| FunnyLookinHat | lirakis, Have you heard of an app called "xsel" ? I'm seeing forums posts about that helping to configure mouse gestures. | 17:07 |
| lirakis | hum i cant remember really | 17:07 |
| lirakis | ill search around and see | 17:07 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Hmm nope that doesn't help | 17:07 |
| snafu006 | geez eveyone is getting system76 | 17:10 |
| FunnyLookinHat | lirakis, Try this: synclient ClickFinger3=3 | 17:10 |
| FunnyLookinHat | In a console | 17:10 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Then try three-finger clicking | 17:10 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Oh sorry | 17:10 |
| FunnyLookinHat | I meant | 17:10 |
| FunnyLookinHat | synclient ClickFinger3=2 | 17:11 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Middle click is 2 - :) | 17:11 |
| snafu006 | lirakis: here http://www.webupd8.org/2011/02/assign-actions-to-multi-touch-trackpad.html | 17:11 |
| lirakis | FunnyLookinHat, hum didnt seem to work strait away | 17:11 |
| lirakis | snafu006, thanks ill look | 17:11 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Ah good link snafu006 ! | 17:11 |
| lirakis | normally ubuntu has some mechanisms to configure this within the mouse control but i didnt see anything | 17:11 |
| lirakis | i have 2 finger scroll etc. all working | 17:12 |
| lirakis | just ... not center click - im reluctant to throw some 3rd party app on top it | 17:13 |
| lirakis | ill do some searching, i just thought id ask you first | 17:13 |
| snafu006 | ya | 17:13 |
| FunnyLookinHat | lirakis, remind me what center click is supposed to do? It's been a while since I had something that used that. | 17:14 |
| lirakis | normally i use it to quick copy paste | 17:14 |
| lirakis | so highlight text | 17:14 |
| lirakis | then i go to some other input box and center click | 17:14 |
| lirakis | and it just pastes | 17:14 |
| snafu006 | lirakis: maybe this one http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/43097/ | 17:16 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Ahhh | 17:16 |
| snafu006 | last one a good one too http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1361 | 17:20 |
| lirakis | hum | 17:28 |
| lirakis | actually i realized now ... that if you highlight text ... its autocopied | 17:28 |
| lirakis | and you can just control+v | 17:29 |
| lirakis | that is fine with me | 17:29 |
| lirakis | i just dont like haveing to highlight, then copy, then paste | 17:29 |
| lirakis | highlight then paste is fine | 17:29 |
| FunnyLookinHat | heh | 17:51 |
