[ltp] Problem with trackpoint

[Harry Popov]

It might be even simpler. If you have habit to rest your finger over
trackpoint while reading or just looking at screen, usually the same
behavior. Try to touch trackpoint only while you want to use it. If this
helps all is ok. It is the same with all Thinkpads.
