Hi, I have a mouse issue with the trackpad on a late 2012 macbook air.
In X I am seeing multiple mouse clicks similar to two drivers for the
same event. i.e., mtrack is set to 3 zones for the pad but a right click
shows (in xev) mouse button 3 down, then 1 down, then 1 up and finally 3
up which destroys most right click actions :(
Oddly, button 1 clicks are ok (only one set, not repeated)
Is it possible to find out where the button 1 clicks are coming from? -
evdev just says which button is clicked, not where it came from.

ok, no reply so it seems no-one else knows either.
I think there are a number of others running gentoo on a macbook, so how
are you handling the trackpad in X (LXDE)?
