gyre and gimble:

Just put (maybe adjusting a bit)

xinput set-prop 'TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint' "Evdev Wheel Emulation" 1
xinput set-prop 'TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint' "Evdev Wheel Emulation Button" 2
xinput set-prop 'TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint' "Evdev Wheel Emulation Timeout" 200

into .xsession (or any other script being run on X session startup).

Use 'xinput list' to figure out proper name of trackpoint XInput device.
