I get the following: ! $sudo gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.mouse middle-button-enabled true No such schema 'org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.mouse' I am using the LXDE spin. I am not a very big mouse user. However, I have trouble when I cut something and paste using the middle button (which is when I need it) because in applications like firefox or sylpheed, the Shift-insert to replace the paste operation does not work. Can I get the Shift-insert button to replace the paste operation of the mouse (or the second button)? I would be fine with that then (in fact more preferable for me). > Sadly, I'm actually about to sell the XPS 13 that I've got.

I don't have a problem with this: though this is kind of irritating to me where it is placed. (I have previously been used to PgUp and PgDn having its own keys). The trackpad is just > awful.

Click for me is intrepreted as left-click only. Would be nice if the trackpad interpreted right and left click as depending on which half you were in. Are you using F19, completely updated? The mouse cursor also frequently > jumps when clicking. I have not noted this either. Consider doing a clean install and see if the problems persist? Btw, I bought mine with Ubuntu installed, and the back has a Ubuntu seal (instead of Windows) on the underside of the laptop. Of course, as noted earlier, Ubuntu installation crashed.
