Right click not working anywhere after upgrade to Lucid

[Guest]

Hi.

Just upgraded to Lucid and it seems I can't use right click at all. Not in firefox, on the desktop or anywhere else. Left and middle click work fine.

Googling hasn't turned up any similar experiences...

Any ideas?

Strange

I assume you have confirmed it's not a physical problem with the mouse itself and that it is properly connected?

Take a look at kmenu/system settings/mouse and do the test. Does it recognise action with the right button?

Nope, nothing wrong with the mouse. It was working fine till I upgraded to Lucid.

Went to the mouse section under system settings, but can't see any test there...

along with a bunch of other gobble-d-gook. close the box window to kill xev.

next type "xmodmap -pp" and you should see:

There are 13 pointer buttons defined.
