Last modified: 2013-04-02 00:19:04 EDT
Description of problem: Selecting a left handed mouse does not work as expected. It seems like both buttons become button 2 instead of switching. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Very. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to mouse preferences. 2. Selected left handed and click ok. 3. Try to use mouse Actual results: Right mouse button does not change behavior. Expected results: Right mouse button behaves like left mouse button. Additional info:
Have the same problem using FC2 test1 and fully up2date. Trying to change the mouse button mapping in KDE control center to left handed gives me a mouse that acts as a mouse with 2 right mouse buttons. This feature shows it self om the KDE start menu and the icons on the desktop. The mouse buttons work fine on a application window. I have stopped and restarted KDE and X, but no luck there. This same problem also was in one of the FC1 test releases. The mouse is a Logitech Cordless MouseMan (PS2) on a Asus P4B-E. It works fine in FC1 and RH9. There is a closed messages (20500, 68623) about this issue
UPSTREAM http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114651 The KDE issue is unrelated because this component is about gnome control center.
