Didn't know that option existed - thanks for the heads up.
Anyways, I went and checked and it was set to Automatic Scrolling.  A
moment later, I realized the problem was that I had the middle mouse
button set to use the Thinkpad's own scrolling feature (Trackpoint or
Ultranav or whatever it's called) instead of a normal middle click.
 I now have it set back to normal middle click, but it would still be
nice if the Thinkpad's enhanced scrolling middle button would work (it
feels much nicer / is easier to use than this normal middle click, and
it works fine in firefox, notepad / any other text editor, windows
explorer, and everything else)

Thanks again,
