Hi!
Just installed F33 on my laptop (fresh install, not an upgrade) and middle click no longer paste in any application (tried gedit, terminal mainly).
I install gnome tweaks and the option is enable. I disabled and re-enabled it (who knows...) and I even did a restart after all that (I heard this process tend to make things work under other operating systems).
I also search the web but didn't find anything special.
It used to work fine on my F32 version which was an upgrade from many Fedora version ago.
Any idea how I could get that working again please?
Thank you.
Fred

I haven't had any issues with middle-click paste on F33, but this isn't a clean install. Have you checked in the mouse control panel to see if the middle click is working at all?

Indeed it's seems to be a hardware malfunction. After testing under xev I found out that I really need to super press to get sometimes some results.
As a side note I am really "mouse-doomed", my MX Master 2S broke yesterday and the mouse pointer no longer moves (all other buttons seem to work), while my "spare mouse" has a faulty middle click.
Thank you for the help.

I got an MX Anywhere 3, and discovered that it wants the scroll wheel to be clicked for middle click -- the button doesn't work by default. Running solaar let me configure it.

Thank you. Actually the mouse worked great for... 5 months. I use Piper for the buttons configuration. And it's still under warranty.
Doing some research online it seems to be the "gesture button" being to tight and blocking the pointer. Once unscrewed a little it works fine.
Going back to the shop tomorrow anyway.
