Article Title: failure to use the middle mouse buttons in the vmwarevm. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.
Ubuntu is installed in VMware, but the middle mouse buttons are not available. Of course, this is unacceptable. I don't know whether it is because of VMware or other installation methods. So I searched the internet and found that this was not a problem that I encountered. Many senior experts also encountered this problem. It would be easier to do this. Thanks for the coolness of people who planted trees. I will share my solutions with you.
Sudo gedit/etc/X11/xorg. conf // here is the configuration file editing. The configuration file can be opened in ubuntu, but it has no modification permission. Therefore, you must enter the configuration file as an administrator to modify the configuration file. Edit it in the opened text.
Set
Option "Protocol" "ps/2"
Replace
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
My xorg. conf was added without this statement.
Ctrl + alt + backspace restart X, still no effect.
I checked it online and found that my configuration was missing:
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
In addition, my Driver is: Driver "vmmouse"
Generally, the Driver "mouse"
Complete configuration section:
Section "InputDevice"Identifier "Configured Mouse"Driver "vmmouse"Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"Option "CorePointer"Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"EndSection

Now, all the modifications have been completed, and we can use our mouse comfortably.
