Gudday!
Still researching... The laptop specs are @

Library_Download.asp%3Fid%3D145+NEC+Versa+C160+specifications&hl=en
For "Pointing device" it says: "Glide Pad with 2 buttons, and
2-direction scroll button". And also having two "Shortcut buttons"... for
"Internet and e-mail..." (in W#$%dows they are configured for whichever
email client and internet browser are set as "default"... :$ It's,
basically, a regular touchpad... with regular left and right buttons... but
with a scroll button in between... :$ Yes, that scroll button is not working
in SuSE, although when pressed to scroll down, it acts like a regular middle
mouse button, and brings up a menu... :$ Hmm... Already checked the device
in SuSE, and it just reads it as a regular PS/2 mouse... (nothing to do with
Alps in there at all). :( In W#$%dows "Mouse Properties" the name there
under "Hardware" is "NX PAD" (manufacturer being NEC)... Ref.
http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=37541 :$ Will keep
googlin'... :| So far found... http://compass.com/synaptics/ and
http://list.driverguide.com/list/LINUX/index.html
Anybody out there ever figured/configured such a mouse? All help is
appreciated... :) Seems to be quite a new addition to touchpads... (the
middle scroll button). :$ "Where there is a will, there is a way." ;) Yes,
patience... :|
