You might want to check the list archives for information on getting the
mouse to work under 2.6, it has been discussed to some degree before.

The easiest thing, if you don't use the trackpad, is just to disable it in
the BIOS. Then the trackpoint will just work, IIRC.

If you use the trackpad, then you'll need to install the synaptics driver
for XFree.

If you want both the trackpad and the trackpoint, you'll need to get a
patch for the kernel so that the kernel's mouse driver passes through both
trackpad and trackpoint events.

Hope that helps.
