a samsung w/ only 1 mouse button? what's the model number (i assume it's
a laptop) I've gotta see this!

I'd personally file a bug report about this, as it appears to be a
failure in ubuntu's process of detecting the system hardware.

unfortunately, I can't think of anything else to try other than looking
at using 'xinput' to maybe change it. I dont know how you would do it,
or if it would even work, but I remember using that when playing with
MPX a while back, and figured it may be helpful. Good luck!
