mouse keys on keyboard?
 

Hello folks.

I'm using the number-keys as mouse keys in Fedora 13, but for some reason, at random the "5" key, which is suppose to be the left mouse button, turns into the right button...?
I.e. i get a menu when i click on items.
it seems to switch on it's own. Unless i'm constantly pressing some button or doing something that changes it, without noticing.

I've had the same problem when using Fedora 9-10 and now 13.

please let me know if this sounds like anything to anyone.

thanks

Are you perhaps talking about X's built-in mouse movement feature? Apparently the button represented by the 5 key is toggled by one of three other keys.

I suspect that you are accidentally hitting the "-" key occasionally.

You're right!

Thanks for your help!
