I am trying to use the Acme editor, that depends a lot on mouse cording. One such cord is to press button 1 (left mouse button) while button 2 (middle) is pressed.
This does not work and using xev, I discovered that button 2 registers both the press and release events on release only.
To be clear: when button 2 is pressed, xev outputs nothing, but when it is released, it outputs two events for the button, one with pressed state and the next with released state, with the same timestamp.
What could be causing that?
