Title:
configure ThinkPad trackpoint scrolling on installation
Status in “hal-info” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
After a fresh install (Kubuntu Hardy 8.04.1) the trackpoint of my thinkpad is
never configured correctly. Correctly meaning the middle mouse button of the
trackpoint can not be used for scrolling. On the page
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_configure_the_TrackPoint
it is described how to do this by adding a few lines in xorg.conf:
Option "EmulateWheel" "on"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
Option "YAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
Since it seems like the trackpoint is recognised anyway during installation,
it should not be such an act to do this automaticly.
Additionaly it would be great if the press-to-select-functionality (also
describe on the page) would be also enabled.
