Hello!
First, sorry for multiple posts, as I posted how-to make suspend and
hibernate working on T61, but this is another issue.
In brief, I cannot make TrackPoint mid-button to scroll. I did
everything as suggested on ThinkWiki, but no result at all. Here is my
xorg.conf:

Please, I like TrackPoint very much and, at the same time dislike
TouchPad. How to make it work? What is wrong here?

Best,
