Guys, the issue involves my HP ZBook 15 G6 laptop with six buttons—left, right, middle (same for bottom), and a special button. After installing Ubuntu 25.04, the buttons didn’t reconfigure properly. Then I tried Mint, which worked fine, but the problem continued. Trackpad gestures are fine, but clicking the middle button causes issues; it keeps popping up and I can’t click left or right anywhere. I can move the cursor but get stuck in the previous window. I’ve tried chat GPT and Perplexity, checked Reddit, but no solution found. I’ve been struggling for two weeks now. I’m currently using a Windows 11 drive and really need help learning Linux. This is frustrating! Please assist.
