Problem with middle mouse button in KDE

[Sergei Andreev]

I can remember somehow similar problem with Konqueror-kde4 with nonworking
middle-button.
The problem was solved with unckecking support of mouse gestures in
appropriate section of System Settings - holding mouse middle-button was the
beginning of gesture.
