How can I do a right click on my MacBook? It was there in Chrome OS on this (Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz) MacBook4,1, but not in Ubuntu.
I'd prefer something like Control-click, Option-click, or Command-click to make it work. Even better would be holding two fingers on the trackpad while pressing the trackpad button to get right click, like it works on Mac OS X.
BTW, I switched from Chrome OS because the Chrome OS drivers for my MacBook's WiFi card are not very good (slow speeds even right beside the access point) and because Netflix on Chrome in this setup is pretty flaky. Ubuntu with the proprietary Broadcom WiFi driver gives good 802.11n speeds, and Netflix with Firefox in Ubuntu is very stable with smooth playback. (Interestingly, Netflix also works in the Chrome browser in Ubuntu, but can be quite stuttery for some reason.)
