How do I make the middle touchpad's button work?
xinput --test 11
yields
button press 1
button press 1
For pressing both the left and the middle button.
I have tried to do
xinput set-button-map 11 1 4 2
and so on, but as the --test shows that button 1 is being depressed, then probably the issue is at a lower level than with X11's perception of what mouse buttons I'm pressing (or assigning button-map 11 1 2 3 and clicking the right button in firefox, wouldn't trigger the middle-click on the link)
