Public bug reported:

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad Compact USB Keyboard with TrackPoint - this is
an external USB keyboard with integrated TrackPoint that is based on the
keyboard from the Thinkpad X230/T430/T530.

Lenovo part number is: 0B47190

Vertical scrolling works fine out of the box on Ubuntu 14.04 (fully
updated), but horizontal scrolling does not work.

I have it connected to a Thinkpad X200, also with integrated Trackpoint,
where horizontal works fine.

If I run xev, vertical scrolling up / down outputs button 4 / 5 as
expected, but horizontal scroll has no output.

I have an open thread about it here:

Here is an Amazon reviewer on Archlinux (likely more knowledgeable than me) 
with the same issue:

On a Windows machine horizontal scroll worked fine using the same
device.
