How do I turn around my object in blender?

Question

When I switched to Ubuntu, I got blender with apt-get and launched it. It's good, but I can't get one thing: I used the middle mouse button to turn while using Blender in my previous operating system, and it doesn't work now in Ubuntu.

How to I turn around my object?

Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr using blender 2.69 from apt repo.

Does the middle mouse button work elsewhere (e.g. [autoscrolling in Firefox](http://askubuntu.com/questions/95267/mouse-wheel-click-scrolling-in-firefox))? This may just be a problem with blender. — Wilf, Apr 26 '14 at 11:42

Take a look at Blender -> File -> User preferences -> 3D View

Ok. I figured out that it works if I use a mouse. But without a mouse??? – tejas Apr 23 '14 at 20:07
@user2548592 can't you map a keyboard shortcut to `Rotate View`? – Cornelius Apr 23 '14 at 20:08
