Touchpad right click issues

novice

My HP laptop is in my sig, but the issue im having is the zone touch pad. the right click does not ever work when clicked, however if I tap (not click) in the extreme far bottom right part of the pad, it will work about 30 percent of the time.

i recently upgraded from 10.04 LTS to 10.10 because in lucid my temp sensors were not detected. one step foreward, two steps back..

does anybody know of a package fix for this? thanks.

I have the same issue on my HP laptop running 10.10. 10.04 worked fine. I believe this is a kernel-level issue, and I'm just living with it until I move to something newer (I don't care for the trackpad even when it *does* work ).

This thread may help, though:

should i follow the clickpad package or is this an expected to be resolved issue in 11.04?
