All,

Has anyone gotten both the trackpad and trackpoint on a t400 to work
simultaneously? I can't seem to get it to work. Here are the relevant
sections of my xorg.conf file.

Section "ServerLayout"
     Identifier     "Layout0"
     Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
     InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
     #InputDevice    "TrackPoint" "CorePointer"
     InputDevice    "TouchPad" "CorePointer"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
     Identifier     "TrackPoint"
     Driver         "mouse"

If Mick's idea doesn't work, make sure you have xf86-input-evdev installed,
and remove anything about the Trackpoint from xorg.conf.  Evdev should find
and configure the Trackpoint automatically (for sufficiently large values of
should).
