it seems that if I do use my trackpoint all the time, it will keep
working. if I stop using it for little more than a few minutes it falls
into a grey area where if I try to move it, initially it won't move the
cursor, but give it another second or two and it becomes "unstuck".

when this occurs, I get the following in dmesg: (one line means one
attempt to move the cursor, but it was "held up" for a second or so)

[  478.072643] usb 5-2.4: reset low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address

 but sometimes the cursor really is frozen and doesn't want to move with the 
trackpoint. on those occasions the dmesg has no log
