Description Yuguang Zhang 2009-12-29 01:04:52 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
Compiler:          gcc version 4.4.1 (Gentoo 4.4.1 p1.0) 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

1. Select
System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Mouse -> Left-handed
2. Apply and tap touchpad
3. Right click menu shows up (Touchpad tap now defaults to right click instead of left click)

Preferably, touchpad can be configured separately from the mouse

Problem can be solved with kcm_touchpad by changing some settings.

This is annoying bug. It make left-handed setting unusable on notebooks. Please, correct it.
