Public bug reported:
I have a Thinkpad T495 and run on it Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04. When I
use the trackpoint in Windows it is working very smooth. It responses to
the finger touch in a "lighter and smoother way". When I use the
Trackpoint in Ubuntu 20.04 (or even 18.04) it generally works but the
movement especially when you start pressing it is to slow, as there
would be to much resistance.The finger gets tired after a while of
working with the Trackpoint and work with it is a bit painful (yes, it
hurts the finger top with the time really!)
The feeling using it is by far not that good as in Windows. And in the
Ubuntu settings there is no separate option to set the Trackpoint speed
and sensivity separately.
By other words the driver for the synaptics driver is not optimal. As I
only use Trackpoint, it is for me a real criterium to use or not use
Ubuntu.
