Comment 3 for bug 544740

I'm new to this and I apologize greatly if this is the wrong place to ask this, but this bug is one of two things driving me up a wall trying to use Ubuntu on my Macbook Pro (the other is the trackpad feel, since you can't hold the button with one finger and drag with the other)... and I see that it's fixed upstream somewhere and I'm wondering if I could get directions on how to fix this on my system? Again, I know this isn't the place to ask that kind of direction but I'm not sure where is - my email is <email address hidden> if anyone wants to contact me with that. Thank you all very much for any help, Mark
