Description of problem: I just used the stage2 DVD iso to install with and during the installation I didn't touch any mouse settings at the summary screen. However when I entered MATE I noticed that right clicking on the MATE desktop or inside of Firefox didn't work with the standard Adwaita theme and as I switched to use the BlackMATE theme the problem still remains. I use all medias except Backports and Testing and I'm fully updated. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.16.0 How reproducible: Everytime I login to MATE. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install MATE, Plasma5, Cinnamon, GNOME in the installation. 2. Make sure you're fully updated. 3. Login to the desktop and right click on it. 4. Voila! It doesn't work.

I just tested the program called xev and rightclicking with it does not give me any errors so the right button seems to work fine, but no right click menu appears.

As I have no other DE working I can't really test it. Plasma4 gives me a darker screen when I log in and no menues or desktop icons what-so-ever. Cinnamon crashes into Fallback mode and asks me if I want to restart it. I'll install Gnome again to test there.

Kristoffer, r you sure that you don't have a mouse/hardware related problem? Or a misconfiguration at install stage? I have did a netinstall here and no issues here. But on a VM.
> Kristoffer, r you sure that you don't have a mouse/hardware related problem? A hardware problem? No, since it works in all the DE's with Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10. I did NOT change any mouse settings in the installation summary.
And right clicking was working fine in Mageia 5.
So you only have a touchpad, no "external" mouse (usb, ...)? Please attach (not paste) the output of libinput-list-devices eg: "libinput-list-devices > /tmp/my-input-devices.txt"

Hi Atilla, Sorry for being so late to give feedback. I am now testing that laptop with mousepad without buttons, and its behaviour is inconsistent. Sometimes right clicking works fine, other times it doesn't. It's inconsistent like that both with clicking on the desktop, and with clicking on applications, like on the title bar of Firefox. It was inconsistent in Plasma5, too. @ Kristoffer Did you test Gnome in cauldron, or was that a different Gnome?
CC: (none) => ftg
I think the inconsistency is solved for me. When I installed Cauldron on this laptop, two months ago, in Plasma5 right clicking worked by clicking the bottom right corner of the touchpad, and in XFCE it worked by clicking the upper right corner (_or_ the other way around!) Now in both it works best by clicking at the bottom, slightly left of the right corner, at 4/5th of the width. Clicking at 5/5th doesn't work. In Mate-1.18.0-1.mga6, right clicking seems to work consistently when clicking at the top of the touchpad, at 3/4th of the width. 4/5th will do, too, 5/5th doesn't work here.
> Did you test Gnome in cauldron, or was that a different Gnome? Yes, Gnome in Cauldron. If you choose to install only GNOME in Cauldron right clicking works just fine, but as soon as you install task-mate-minimal and login to MATE right clicking only works in GNOME.
@ Frank Griffin, When I CC'ed you, I forgot to tell why ;-) It's (because you have ample experience as touchpad user & because you reported bugs about them) in case you have some knowledge that could help to figure out why Kristoffer's touchpad doesn't work in Mate. Btw, now I remember your bug report about "tap to click" not working, which leads to the following addition to my previous comments: (In reply to Marja van Waes from comment #21) > In Mate-1.18.0-1.mga6, right clicking seems to work consistently when > clicking at the top of the touchpad, at 3/4th of the width. 4/5th will do, > too, 5/5th doesn't work here. Note that that touchpad is pressable. I haven't tried tapping on it to click, but I pressed it.
@Marja I'm subscribed to the bugs list, so I didn't notice that you had CCd me ;-) I haven't used Mate, but I assume it has some equivalent to KDE System settings, and it seems like it isn't configuring the touchpad geometry correctly. Most touchpads have the bottom half-inch physically divided into a left and right button, but on some (like the one I'm using right now) the left and right buttons are just drawn on the bottom of the pad. I can't think of the command to display all the touchpad settings at the moment, but there's a slew of them in xorg.conf and what used to be ktouchpadrc (?) in KDE4. In Plasma System Settings, you can specify what happens when you click the top left, top right, bottom left, and bottom right, and I'd guess that at the lowest level you can specify the coordinates that bound each of these. Googling found the command "xinput". "xinput list" will list your devices, and "xinput list-props "(name of touchpad)"" will list all the properties: [root@ftglap2 ~]# xinput list-props "ELAN1300:00 04F3:3028 Touchpad" Device 'ELAN1300:00 04F3:3028 Touchpad': Device Enabled (143): 1 Coordinate Transformation Matrix (145): 1.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000 libinput Tapping Enabled (284): 1 libinput Tapping Enabled Default (285): 0 libinput Tapping Drag Enabled (286): 1 libinput Tapping Drag Enabled Default (287): 1 libinput Tapping Drag Lock Enabled (288): 0 libinput Tapping Drag Lock Enabled Default (289): 0 libinput Tapping Button Mapping Enabled (290): 1, 0 libinput Tapping Button Mapping Default (291): 1, 0 libinput Accel Speed (292): 0.000000 libinput Accel Speed Default (293): 0.000000 libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled (294): 0 libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled Default (295): 0 libinput Send Events Modes Available (265): 1, 1 libinput Send Events Mode Enabled (266): 0, 0 libinput Send Events Mode Enabled Default (267): 0, 0 libinput Left Handed Enabled (296): 0 libinput Left Handed Enabled Default (297): 0 libinput Scroll Methods Available (298): 1, 1, 0 libinput Scroll Method Enabled (299): 0, 1, 0 libinput Scroll Method Enabled Default (300): 1, 0, 0 libinput Click Methods Available (301): 1, 1 libinput Click Method Enabled (302): 1, 0 libinput Click Method Enabled Default (303): 1, 0 libinput Middle Emulation Enabled (304): 0 libinput Middle Emulation Enabled Default (305): 0 libinput Disable While Typing Enabled (306): 1 libinput Disable While Typing Enabled Default (307): 1 Device Node (268): "/dev/input/event12" Device Product ID (269): 1267, 12328 libinput Drag Lock Buttons (308): <no items> libinput Horizontal Scroll Enabled (309): 1 Probably "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" is what's keeping the absolute edges (5/5) from responding. As to how to change these, I have no idea. Probably the libinput docs would say for the CLI, but how/whether the Mate UI allows this, no clue.
Thanks for the feedback, Frank :-) @ Kristoffer Can you try whether the right button area of your touchpad is in a different place than expected, when using Mate? And, in case it contains some useful information, do also attach the output of: xinput list-props "FocalTechPS/2 FocalTech Touchpad" (You might need to first install xinput)

I just confirmed this. Right-clicking on the desktop has no effect, and right-clicking on an icon simply selects it, as if you had left-clicked on it. Possibly this worked under synaptics and broke when we replaced that with libinput ?

I think still this is a misconfiguration of the touchpad. No one reported same behaviour even i asked in qa ml. Also, your my-input-devices log shows that "Tap-to-click: disabled" so that should be something other than DE. But i really don't have a real answer. Note that you may need to use synaptics touchpad driver since we use libinput to configure touchpad on Mageia 6 by default.

Status: NEW => UNCONFIRMEDEver confirmed: 1 => 0
I can also reproduce this on the RC version of Mageia 6. Tried with tmb's kernel and no change.
I have narrowed it down to that MATE and Cinnamon has done something to make the Optional PS/2- or USB mouse not work when you right click since if I open mousedrake and click on USB and then choose Wheel and restart X, right click works in MATE. Haven't tried in Cinnamon yet thou.

PING!
Please don't shout, Kristoffer.
Sorry for late reply, real life takes whole time. Back to the topic, Kristoffer, after you play with mousedrake, there should be an /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old file or something similar in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d directory. Would you mind to add your current xorg.conf and xorg.conf.old files? Your experiment with mousedrake tells me that there is a misconfiguration in xorg for your touchpad brand/driver. Notice that, your Gnome experiment is irrelevant here because, if i'm not wrong on this, Gnome runs on top of Wayland.

This time I used the Mageia-6-sta2-LiveDVD-GNOME-x86_64-DVD.iso to install and as soon as I installed task-mate and rebooted the mouse didn't work in MATE, but it still does in GNOME Shell.
Hi Kristoffer. As i wrote before this issue doesn't Desktop related issue but you X and touchpad drivers configuration issue i think. Please test this with other Xorg based desktop like Xfce. I bet you'll see same thing happen. Please note that Gnome Shell is on top of Wayland so not relevant here.
I have now reinstalled Mageia with the RC iso and I only installed XFCE this time and right click works on the desktop so the problem the problem is either with MATE and/or Cinnamon. Something else that I can try?
I've had Mga6 installed since March running only Plasma, besides Openbox. Today I installed Mate and noticed some issues. It turned out when I originally install it, I ran, "urpmi mate-desktop", that's when I noticed issues, After researching I realized I should have ran, "task-mate" and after rebooting, all the issues were gone. I can right click running Mate. The other issues such as when I open apps, they were stuck on the top left corner. So far, those issues are not happening now. Just a thought to this thread.

As I uninstalled all the installed Desktop Environments leaving only Cinnamon the issue can be recreated again. Any help would be appreciated. I checked which Mouse I'm using and it says Universal Optional PS/2- or USB mouse If I change that to USB Wheel it still won't work. It used to work before and it definatelly works in Mageia 5, but going back to Mageia 5 from having Mageia 6 (Cauldron) installed on the same harddisk recreates another error that makes it impossible to make even Wayland or X11 starting.

I get the same result booting the tmb kernel.
Once again in a new fresh installation using the netinstall iso I have this issue again. Why is something reseting my choice of mouse during the installation summary?
Did a new installation again and this problem still exists.
Problem still exists.
Summary: Right clicking anywhere is disabled as standard in MATE and Cinnamon => Right clicking with FocalTechPS/2 FocalTech Touchpad made by HP does not work in MATE or Cinnamon, but a USB connect mouse works.
Even though it's also shown in another dist I can confirm that this is in fact an issue with the trackpad.
Any more information needed?
