YMMV, but For my beowulf installation using Xfce4 -> right click on
blan area f screen, then applications -> Settings -> 'Mouse & Touchpad'
-> choose your device and configuration under Devices/Behaviour/Theme.

It is probably 'double click;time' under Behaviour.

FWIW, I have not had to chase 'emulate 3 buttons' for about a decade.
It seems to auto-majikally happen.

for general info, since I too have the random Copy&Paste-Not problem,
this is the hardware in my system. Note, there is only one actual
mouse, but the mechanical keyboard (some versions) actually have
two USB ports and can apparently do fancy things for 'gaming' prposes.
Sadly my fingers no longer can do the same.
