    synaptics touchpad middle-click issues/bug

    I just did a fresh install of 10.10 the other day on my laptop, and it works great except for a strange problem with the touchpad (I think).

    Middle click seems to randomly trigger when I click the mouse click button. When I switch tabs in firefox it will sometimes close them, and sometimes when I click a link it copies it and then clicking on a text box will paste it, so it is without a doubt some weird middle click behavior. I even tried disabling tap clicks on the touchpad and it still happens.

    Is there another driver I can use, or a way to configure the way the buttons work? I'm not afraid to go into some confusing seeming configuration files or anything, but I really have no idea where to even start looking to fix this. What driver/config does ubuntu use for touchpads now?

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    edit: whoops, I have 10.10, not 10.04.
