By the way, it seems that there are other issues with the ALPS trackpoint which is used with the E550. With the trackpad working ok, the trackpoint "stick" is slow and the configuration options for speed and acceleration seem to not be available.
See http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/UltraNav or http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Trackpoint#ALPS for some more details. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431338 Title: Touchpad is not detected.
