I've been using an fdi file that is very similar in Karmic and noted the

@hao (#35): Yes, I think you have to add the hal-thing. I just updated
to the karmic-kernel on jaunty, so my hal-rules didn't change and I had
added it before. Find out with xinput how the trackpoint is called and
add the appropriate hal-rule (it's not calle IBM...). I assume the
missing hal-rule
I also had this problem. Here is my condition:
1. Ubuntu 9.04;
2. Try to follow the instruction here:

3. Followed the Gnome set up routine.
4. Installed configure-trackpoint;
However, when I try to run it, it reports the error:
I think this is fixed with kernel 2.6.30 (from karmic) - no need to
disable the touchpad any more. Now I can scroll with the middle-button
and the trackpoint.

Is it a bug that one has to disable the touchpad to get trackpoint

for that behaviour. Should I open a new bug? The heading seems to fit,

I tested the version from jaunty and it seems to work there. (I
backported xserver-xorg-input-evdev - however it leads to instabilities,
so this is not a solution.) Can somebody confirm with a Live-CD?
However I could not find a single commit upstream that specifically
addresses the issue.

The issue regarding 64 bit systems seems to have been fixed with the latest

Not sure whether the fdi file is still needed.

I said a few comments back that the the solution from thinkwiki worked

than that. Middle button scrolling seems to come and go. I'm not yet
