hi,
slackware on a thinkpad x60s; trackpoint has never worked for me, but a USB scrolling mouse does. i've read through just about every thread pertaining to trackpoints (i think) and have tried the most promising variations. here are the relevant parts of my xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "InputDevice" # <-- Trackpoint troubles
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" # <-- don't know if these extra
Option "Buttons" "5" # buttons are needed
Endsection
Section "InputDevice" # <-- USB mouse, works perfectly, scrolling and all
Identifier "Mouse2"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "resolution" "200"
Endsection
Section "ServerLayout" # <-- read a post that said to do this
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Screen "Screen 1"
InputDevice "Mouse1" "Corepointer" # <-- for the trackpoint
InputDevice "Mouse2" "SendCoreEvents" # <-- for the USB mouse
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "Corekeyboard"
EndSection
any ideas on how to make the trackpoint work (without disabling the USB mouse)?
thanks in advance.
