Install aranj's 2.6.0 kernel RPM 2. Reboot into kernel 2.6.0 3. StartX 4. Select some text 5. Try pasting the text with both left and right mouse buttons at the same time Actual Results: It pastes the text and ALSO brings up the context menu for the right mouse button. Expected Results: Just paste the text. Additional info: The exact same configuration, if rebooted in to 2.4.22 works as desired. The kernel rpm exhibits the same behavior under RH 9 and on two different machines.
This was a suggestion from the mailing list, however it doesn't appear to fix the problem ------------------------- > I have two button mouse in three > button emulation mode and when I hit both mouse buttons to paste it not > only pastes, but it ALSO raises the context menu as if I had right > clicked.

Fixed in the current kernel ?
Yes I believe this is fixed, you can mark it closed.
