The only thing I was able to glean from those pages was a reference to gnome-control-center. neither that nor xfce settings offered any means of implementing the emulate 3 buttons function that I could find.

However it appears that /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/60-libinput.conf might be the place to add it, perhaps something similar to:

Section "InputClass"
      Identifier "middle button emulation class"
      MatchIsPointer "on"
      Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
      Driver "evdev"
    EndSection

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated before I start experimenting ...

Thanks,

Bob
