Package: xfree86-common Version: 4.2.1-8 Laptops made by Apple have only one mouse button. In order to get around this limitation, the Linux kernel can simulate mouse clicks using certain keyboard keys. However, this must be configured using the kernel's sysctl interface. Xfree86-common should generate entries in /etc/sysctl.conf for mouse button emulation. The following is an example /etc/sysctl.conf fragment: # Activate Mouse Buttons; see <linux/input.h> dev.mac_hid.mouse_button_emulation=1 dev.mac_hid.mouse_button3_keycode=96 # KEY_KPENTER dev.mac_hid.mouse_button2_keycode=87 # KEY_F11 This example maps the keypad enter key to a mouse's right-click and the F11 key to a mouse's middle-click. Ideally, a script would prompt the user to set these values, depending on his preferences. This would allow mouse button emulation to work out of the box when using Debian.
